Steady Mid-Race Surge Anchors Marathon Finish Grace Mcgehee completed the marathon in 4:22:45, averaging 10:01 per mile. She opened near 10:09-10:15 pace through the first two miles, tightened into a consistent 9:55-10:00 rhythm across the middle of the course, then eased slightly to the 10:15-10:39 range over the final 10K as the effort accumulated. Her standout stretch came from mile 14 through mile 18, where she covered five miles at roughly 9:47-9:57 pace, the fastest sustained segment of her race. That effort came at altitude, with Boulder sitting above 5,000 feet, before she made her way to the finish on the historic Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder.
