Consistent Start with Need for Endurance in 10K Lloyd Brown from New Orleans exhibited a strategic start in the 2025 Boulderthon 10K, maintaining a consistent pace during the first two miles with identical split times of 7:20 min/mile. Starting strong, Lloyd held the 17th position in his division M30-34 during those initial miles. However, a noticeable drop-off began at mile three where his pace slowed to 7:59 min/mile, slightly increasing his elapsed pace to 7:32 min/mile. As the race progressed, most splits showed a progressive slowing trend, reaching a split pace of 9:43 min/mile by miles five and six. The overall pace settled at 8:31 min/mile, contributing to a slight decline in placement, ending in the 36th position in his division. For future events, focusing on endurance training and maintaining consistent pace throughout could improve overall performance. Engaging with his ZFT Run Club team may offer valuable insight and motivation.
