Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Gabby Prusse #12795 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Mid-Race Pace Gives Way to a Gradual Fade Gabby Prusse finished the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 4:21:50, trailing her 3:59:18 finish at the same race last year. After an uneven opening few miles, she settled into a rhythm, holding roughly 9:05 per mile through the middle of the course before the pace drifted past 10:00 per mile over the closing miles, a gradual rather than sudden slowdown. Her strongest stretch came from mile 6 to mile 14, where she covered eight miles in just over 72 minutes, averaging about 9:02 per milethe most consistent running of her day. That stretch likely carried her out past Boulder Reservoir and through the county backroads before the finish on the Pearl Street Mall, all completed at Boulder's altitude above 5,000 feet.
