Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Wisbach Kyle #10850 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Strong Front Half Carries Steady Marathon Finish Kyle ran 4:34:50 to complete the Boulderthon Marathon, holding remarkably even pacing across the first 20 miles covering that stretch in 9:57 per mile, with splits tightening as low as 9:01 by mile 11. That consistency built a solid foundation before the final 10K, where the pace eased through miles 21-23. The course's later miles pass the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, close to where his effort dipped before he rallied over the final three miles, closing in 10:13 to reach the Pearl Street Mall finish. Given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, the even effort through the race's midsection stands as the clearest strength of the day. Future efforts might focus on sustaining that same rhythm into the final 10K to carry the strong middle miles all the way home.
