Date: Sept. 28, 2025 Participant: Jorge Leal #33776 Race: 2025 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles Weather: Perfect running weather with temperatures in the 50's to 70's and nice cloud cover

Consistent Start with Noticeable Fatigue in Later Miles Jorge began the 2025 Boulderthon 10K with a strong first mile at 6:56, finishing his first segment in 58th place overall and 5th in his division. This initial pace of 6:56 min/mile pushed him comfortably forward. However, as the race progressed, there was a gradual slowdown, with his split times increasing to 8:44 by mile six. Compared to last year's Boulderthon performance, Jorge's final timing of 49:23 was slightly slower than his previous time of 48:17. His overall position this year was 157th among 2428 participants, showing a slight drop from last year's placement. For future races, sustaining his earlier pace could help maintain his standing. Consistent pacing throughout the race, especially after the initial strong start, could potentially lead to improved overall performance.
