Consistent Performance with a Strong Finish Richie maintained an impressive average pace of 6:31 min/mile over the 26.2-mile course, showing consistency throughout most of the race. Notably, he secured his place 15th overall and 2nd in his division, M20-24, out of 2,678 participants at the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon. Richies performance was marked by steady split times, and he demonstrated strength in the latter parts of the race. In the final mile, he clocked his fastest split at 6:06, capitalizing on his endurance and pacing strategy. Impressively, Richie improved his overall time by nearly two minutes compared to his performance in the previous year's event. In particular, his ability to manage pace through the mid-section of the race was a key factor, as he transitioned from 6:47 min/mile in mile 4 to a powerful 6:06 in the last stretch. For future races, he might consider minor adjustments in early pacing to further enhance performance. Keep up the good work, Richie!
