Consistent Pace and Strong Finish Colin began the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon with consistent pacing, recording an initial mile split at 7:53 min/mile. Maintaining this tempo for the first two miles, he demonstrated a tactical approach by moving up from 660th to 494th overall by Mile 3, improving his pace to 7:27 min/mile. As the race progressed, Colin's splits reflected increasing confidence, especially between Miles 5 and 8 where he improved his pace to between 7:13 and 7:15 min/mile, reducing his overall elapsed pace to 7:24 min/mile by the race's conclusion. Throughout the race, Colin successfully navigated the ranks, finishing 286th overall out of 6,546 participants. Notably impressive, he positioned 23rd in his division M20-24. His ability to slightly quicken his pace in the later stages, such as a 7:11 min/mile pace in Mile 13, further emphasizes effective race management. Future focus could include refining early pacing strategies to maximize positional gains even earlier in the race.
