Date: Sept. 28, 2025 Participant: Lee Rivers #27455 Race: 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles Weather: Perfect running weather with temperatures in the 50's to 70's and nice cloud cover

Strong Start with Notable Consistency Lee Rivers delivered a steady performance at the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon, finishing with a time of 1:39:59. His overall pace was 7:37 min/mile. Notably, he maintained a solid 7:29 min/mile pace through the first two splits. His fastest mile was at the 9-mile mark with a split of 5:57. This helped him improve his division standing to 25th in the M40-44 category from an initial 33rd. Rivers also registered consistent mile times, balancing speed and endurance effectively. For future races, attention to sustaining faster splits could be beneficial. The prolonged 9:37 split during mile 10 appeared slightly unusual amidst his otherwise consistent performance. Analyzing factors that contributed to this deviation might increase overall race time. Nevertheless, Rivers represented the ZFT Run Club well, finishing 379th overall among 6,546 participants from the starting field, highlighting both commitment and capability. Well done, Lee.
