Steady Start with Potential for Consistency Enhancement Alondra Hernandez Quintana demonstrated a consistent beginning in the 2025 Boulderthon 10K with an initial pace of 8:27 min/mile maintained through the first two miles. The early strategy placed her well in her division, securing a position of 333 overall and 115th among females. However, from mile three, the pace began to gradually decline, with the third mile recorded at 9:57 min/mile, affecting her position. By the fifth mile, her pace shifted to 10:58 min/mile, resulting in an overall finish of 667th, 296th among females, and 67th in her division. Her finish time was 1:00:35 over 6.2 miles, averaging a pace of 9:46 min/mile. Maintaining consistency in the early miles is noteworthy, yet attention to pacing in the latter half of the race could enhance performance. Focusing on strategies to even out split times may ensure improvements in future races.
