Pacing Consistency Shines in Strong Finish Cherelle Cowan completed the 2025 Boulderthon 10K with an impressive and steady pacing strategy. She finished with an elapsed time of 1:03:45 and an overall pace of 10:17 min/mile. Notably, her pacing remained consistent throughout the race, with her fastest mile being the 6th mile at 10:14 min/mile. Despite some fluctuations, Cherelle managed to maintain a sub-10:30 pace for each mile. Improvement in placement was observed in the later stages, with a noteworthy recovery after Mile 2, improving from 66th to 52nd within her division F35-39 and from 948th to 623rd overall by Mile 5. Continuing to develop this mid-race strategy could further enhance her performance. Excelling in maintaining consistent splits, Cherelle's performance is commendable, and focusing on early acceleration while preserving energy for the final miles might result in even faster times.
