Gradual Pacing with Potential for Growth Rosa Ovalle recorded a finish time of 1:18:06 in the 2025 Boulderthon 10K, with an average pace of 12:35 min/mile. Over the 6.2-mile distance, her splits reveal an initial pace of 10:11 min/mile for the first mile, which incrementally slowed each subsequent mile. Her split times varied, with the quickest mile at 10:11 and the slowest at 14:51. Notably, she secured 64th place in her division, Female 40-44. In terms of pacing strategy, focusing on even splits could help maintain a steady pace throughout, especially in the latter miles, to minimize slowing down. Fine-tuning pacing consistency and possibly integrating more speed work in her training regime could yield improved results in future events. Keep up the hard work, Rosa!
