Consistent Start with a Strong Finish Chase Roberts from Denver completed the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:43:27, maintaining an average pace of 7:53 min/mile. Noteworthy was his consistent pacing at the start, recording a 7:36 min/mile for the first mile and remaining steady through the first 5 miles. His performance was strongest at the 5-mile mark with a split of 7:33 min/mile, improving his position significantly in the division. This demonstrates a promising ability to maintain a robust pace early on. For areas of improvement, it could benefit his performance to keep his later splits closer to the earlier ones to avoid dropping in places between miles 8 and 11. There was a slight increase in pace in the latter stages, with the slowest splits being 8:28 min/mile at mile 9. However, Chase finished strongly, clocking an impressive 7:32 min/mile at mile 13. With continued focus on maintaining pace, further improvements are likely.
