Consistent Performance with Strong Divisional Presence David Mccollum from Boulder, CO maintained an impressive and consistent pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon. Clocking in a final time of 1:25:08, Mccollum averaged a 6:29 min/mile pace across the 13.1-mile course. Notably, he finished 5th in his division (M40-44), showcasing his skill among peers in his age group. A strong point in the race was Mile 5 where he executed a fast split of 6:20, moving up significantly to 44th place overall in that mile. While maintaining a steady pace can be challenging, some fluctuation occurred in split times, particularly between Mile 4 (6:36) and Mile 8 (6:43). His performance was commendable, especially considering the field of 6,546 participants. Continued focus on maintaining even splits or slightly negative splits could prove advantageous in future races. Congratulations to Mccollum and the Boulder Track Club for a strong representation!
