Consistent Performance with a Strong Finish Aiden maintained a consistent pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon, averaging 7:54 min/mile over 26.2 miles. His split times reveal sharp consistency, such as at mile 5, where Aiden clocked at 7:44 min/mile and mile 25 with an impressive 7:33 min/mile pace. His overall time was 3:27:01, earning him 5th place in his age division M15-19. The data suggests opportunities for refining endurance, especially in the latter miles where splits slightly increased, such as mile 26 at 7:34 min/mile.

The spike in pace at the midpoint signaled a boosted effort, sustaining a good standing in varying positions, ultimately securing a top 5 finish in his division. Emphasis on maintaining consistent paces across all miles would enhance future race strategies.
