Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Jacob Nguyen competed in the 2025 Boulderthon Half Marathon for Team Alaskan Wolff, completing the course in 2:11:10. He maintained an overall pace of 10:00 min/mile. Starting strong, Jacob covered the first mile in 8:46, initially ranking 167th in his division and 691st among male participants. Throughout the race, his pace saw a gradual decline, as indicated in the 6th mile split of 10:25 min/mile with division placement of 315th. Despite the pace variation, Jacob showed notable control towards the final stretch, achieving a 9:18/mile pace in the last mile. This effort helped him finish 333rd in his division and 1450th among males. His performance reflects consistent pacing, but there may be opportunities to sustain the early speed more evenly throughout. Exploring strategies to maintain a steadier pace in the later miles could further strengthen race outcomes. Great job representing Alaskan Wolff, Jacob!
