Consistent Progress with Strategic Pacing Tim Lyons from Denver completed the 2025 Boulderthon 5K in 30:18 with an overall pace of 9:46 min/mile. His performance showcased a steady improvement in speed, especially notable in the split dynamics. Starting the first mile at a 19:13 min/mile pace, which was quite conservative, gave him room to increase his speed significantly in the subsequent miles. The second split was completed at an impressive 12:05 min/mile, demonstrating Tim's ability to pick up the pace effectively. The third mile saw further improvement as he pushed to a 9:47 min/mile pace. Overall, Tim clinched the 260th position in his gender category and 33rd in the M40-44 division. Focusing on maintaining the momentum gained in the second and third splits from the start could yield even better results in future races. Keep up the excellent work, and consider building on your pacing strategy for continued success!
