Consistent Splits and Top Division Finish Erin Dougherty delivered an impressive performance at the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon. Her overall time was 1:35:43, with an average pace of 7:18 min/mile. Erin's split times indicate a well-managed race, keeping her average mile pace consistent throughout, culminating in a strong finish. Notably, split times improved progressively in the latter half, with mile 12 clocking in at 6:53, suggesting effective energy management that led to a successful race completion. Erin placed 250th overall out of 6546 participants and achieved a top 10 finish in her division, F30-34.
