Strategic Performance Yields Consistent Results Adam Akisanya showcased a strong and strategic performance at the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon with a final time of 1:56:40 and an overall pace of 8:54 min/mile. Despite starting with a steady 9:30 min/mile in the first mile, Adam improved his pace to finish strong with a final mile at 8:45 min/mile. Noteworthy is the significant variation seen in mile 3 with a pace of 27:01 min/mile. However, he quickly improved mid-race and consistently maintained under 9:00 min/mile pace from mile 6 onwards. The placement statistics are impressive considering the competitive field of 6,546 participants. He secured the 888th position among males and was 138th in his age division (M35-39). Analyzing the pacing strategy, efforts could be made to maintain a more consistent pace throughout, particularly addressing the earlier fluctuations. His consistent performance in the final segment is a testament to his endurance training with the Endurance Run Club.
