Strong Start with Consistent Pace Gabrielle Lochbaum started the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon with an impressive first-mile split of 7:35, maintaining a pace that placed her 85th in her gender category. Her pace varied slightly but remained steady throughout the race. Notably, Gabrielle held a pace under 8:00 min/mile up to the 10-mile mark, signaling strong performance consistency. While her overall place was 680th out of 6546 participants, she achieved a final time of 1:46:37, maintaining an average pace of 8:08 min/mile. As the race progressed, her pace began to slow slightly, with the final few miles exceeding the initial 8:00 min/mile pace.

However, staying within the top 50 of her division (F25-29) demonstrates a solid performance for Gabrielle.
