Consistent Performance with a Determined Finish Danilo Placer from New York, aged 35, completed the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon with a time of 4:11:05, maintaining an overall average pace of 9:35 min/mile. Impressively, he placed 617th out of 2678 participants, ranking 476th among male competitors and 63rd in his division (M35-39). Danilo's race began with a steady start, maintaining a consistent pace within the first few miles. His pacing tightened up later in the race with consistent improvements throughout the marathon. Analyzing the splits, Danilo exhibited notable consistency, saving energy early and gradually improving, evidenced by his much faster later miles. His fastest split pace was recorded at 3:25 min/mile at the 5th and 6th mile. However, there were some slower miles towards the end, such as mile 24 at 11:09 min/mile, which offers potential for targeted training. Encouragingly, Danilo demonstrated resilience and a strong finish, suggesting a solid foundation to build upon in future races.
