Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Daniel Fisher #10275 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Early Pace Holds Firm Through the Middle Miles of the Marathon Daniel Fisher completed the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 4:07:37, averaging 9:27 per mile across the 26.2-mile course. Fisher's pacing was remarkably even through the first 20 miles, holding between 9:15 and 9:20 per mile cumulatively. Miles 10 through 11 stood out as his strongest full-mile stretch, splitting 9:03 and 8:49 to nudge his overall pace to its fastest point of the day. The back end of the race brought more variation, with miles 21 and 23 slowing to 10:48 and 10:43, before he closed with a 9:17 final mile his fastest split since mile 11. Given that the marathon course passes near the lululemon Power-Up Zone around mile 22.5, that late rebound came right as the course worked its way toward the finish on the Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, a city sitting above 5,000 feet of elevation.
