Solid Performance Despite Increased Challenge Isaac Bohrer completed the 2025 Pikes Peak Ascent with an elapsed time of 4:50:23, averaging a pace of 21:44 minutes per mile over the 13.36-mile distance. He placed 874th overall out of 2,049 participants, achieving 87th in his division (O40-44) and 628th in gender. A noteworthy feature of his performance was a consistent improvement in his division placement as he progressed from "Start" to "Finish," reflecting endurance despite increasing elevation and fatigue. Isaac's splits highlight crucial moments throughout his race journey. Notably, after a strong start at Ruxton with a 10:02 min/mile pace, he faced significant deceleration beyond Barr Camp at 7.91 miles, with the steepest challenges awaiting beyond the tree line. The split from "A-Frame" to "2 Miles To Go" registered a 28:37 min/mile pace, indicating a rising challenge as he ascended from 11,933 to 12,689 feet. Consider focusing on high-altitude conditioning to improve split times in future races.
