Consistent Performance with Steady Improvement Greg Roden maintained a steady pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon, finishing the 26.2-mile course with a final time of 4:27:07, equating to an average pace of 10:11 min/mile. Notably, Greg displayed a consistent pace during the initial stages, with Elapsed Paces hovering around the 9:20 min/mile mark for the first six miles. A notable effort was seen between miles 10 and 12, where Greg achieved his quickest split of 8:44 min/mile. Throughout the race, Greg's position in his M50-54 division fluctuated but peaked at 12th place by mile 25, ultimately finishing 13th. The consistent pacing, especially in the early stages, is commendable. For the latter part of the race, consider strategies to maintain split paces, particularly after mile 20, as they slightly increased over time. With focused training on endurance in the final miles, further improvements can enhance finishing positions. Great effort overall!
