Consistent Effort with a Strong Finish Jacques Mailloux completed the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon with an official time of 1:41:44, maintaining an average pace of 7:46 min/mile. Notably, he demonstrated a strong ability to maintain consistency for the majority of the race. Jacques began with a 7:47 min/mile pace for the first mile and was able to sustain a similar pace through mile 4. A minor pacing adjustment appeared at mile 5 with a 9:18 min/mile split, but he quickly returned to sub-8 minute miles for the remainder of the race. The standout moment in Jacques's performance came during the final mile with an impressive split of 6:58 min/mile, marking it as his fastest segment. This effort contributed to an improved overall standing later in the race, moving from ranks in the mid-400s to 424th overall out of 6,546 participants, 311th among males, and 50th in his division. Jacques could benefit from investigating the reasons for the pace fluctuation around the midpoint.
