Consistent Pacing with a Strong Finish Caitlin Mcgillivary completed the 2025 Boulderthon Marathon in a time of 3:40:00, achieving an average pace of 8:23 min/mile. Notably, she finished 5th in her division, Female 35-39, and was 34th among all female participants, out of a total field of 2678 runners. Her performance showed an admirable start with initial mile splits of 8:47, 8:32, and 8:29, demonstrating a consistent pace early on. Caitlin progressively improved her position throughout the race. In the middle stages, she maintained a solid pace around the 8:00-8:10 min/mile mark, and her efforts paid off as she moved from 461st to 221st place overall. A commendable metric was her ability to maintain consistency as her fastest split came in mile 2 at 7:49 min/mile. A minor trend of slower splits in the latter portions presents an opportunity to work on endurance to sustain speed in the final stretch.
