Consistent Performance with Strong Mid-Race Pace Sherry Daun demonstrated a consistent pace throughout the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon, completing the race in 1:51:22 with an average pace of 8:30 min/mile. Her placing within the division F45-49 was 18th out of the total female participants. Noteworthy was her pacing strategy between miles 5 and 6, maintaining an 8:20 min/mile split. She showed a strong capability to hold a steady rhythm. Notable was her impressive acceleration at mile 9 where she clocked a 6:40 min/mile pace for that split, indicating a strong burst of speed when needed. However, following this high-paced section, the split at mile 10 slowed to 10:35 min/mile. A consideration could be slight adjustments to maintain balance post-exertion. Compared to her previous race at the Boulderthon in 2024, Sherry improved her overall pacing, demonstrating growth in her performance as she tackled the longer half marathon distance.
