Focused Effort and Improved Pacing Lead to a Strong Finish David Simoneau successfully completed the 2025 Boulderthon 10K with a final time of 1:00:17, showing a notable improvement over his previous year's performance of 1:01:34 in the same event. His overall pace averaged 9:43 min/mile down from 9:55 min/mile last year. This pace enhancement is a positive outcome indicative of improved endurance and better management throughout the race. A closer look at the splits reveals some consistent pacing, with positive fluctuations. David began with a 9:55 min/mile pace in the first mile, gradually reducing it by strategic efforts, especially in Mile 5, where he recorded his fastest mile at 9:26 min/mile. He improved his positions across several splits, notably rising from 818th to 512th in the fifth mile. It might be beneficial for David to work on maintaining even splits to finer-tune his overall time. Overall, this reflects well on David's progress as a runner.
