Consistent Pacing with a Late Surge Amber Brydon maintained a steady pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon, finishing with a total time of 1:51:23 and an average pace of 8:30 min/mile. Starting strong, Amber clocked an 8:24 min/mile in her first mile and progressed to a slightly faster pace of 8:06 min/mile by the second mile. Her ability to maintain a sub-9 minute pace for the majority of the race is noteworthy. One impressive highlight was Amber's ninth mile, where she accelerated to a split pace of 6:39 min/mile, a strong burst of speed.
