Consistent Start, Strong Finish Keonuk Park completed the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon with a final time of 1:52:45, maintaining an impressive average pace of 8:36 min/mile over the 13.1-mile course. His initial miles set a strong foundation, notably achieving a 7:57 min/mile during his second mile. Keonuk's pacing remained consistent, and mid-race laps such as Mile 5, where he climbed up to 513th place overall, showed his ability to strategically enhance position within his division. Throughout the race, Keonuk managed his pacing effectively, and although there were fluctuations, particularly in Mile 11 with a 9:13 min/mile pace, he still secured the 67th position in the M40-44 division among 6546 total participants. This consistency reflects a solid strategy. For future races, analyzing split data to target pacing improvements in later stages could yield even better outcomes. Engaging further with race strategy sessions at ZFT Run Club could also be beneficial.
