Consistent Pacing Leads to Notable Performance Parker Slater maintained a consistently strong pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon 10K. Starting off with an 8:00 min/mile pace, Parker maintained this through the first two miles. By mile three, there was a slight increase in pace to 8:01 min/mile, before accelerating to a sub-8:00 pace in subsequent miles. Notably, the final three miles improved significantly, with split paces of 7:59, 7:19, and another 7:19 min/mile. This admirable consistency and negative splits led Parker to improve his standing significantly throughout the race. Moving from 235th overall at mile one to an impressive 120th by the finish indicates remarkable endurance and strategy. Placing 17th in the M30-34 division and 87th among male participants demonstrates Parker's solid effort. Focusing on maintaining acceleration through the finish line can further enhance Parkers competitive edge in future races.
