Strong Early Pace Fuels Top-5% Marathon Finish Brianna Moore finished the marathon in 3:36:53, placing 149th overall and 21st among women in a field of 3,305, with a third-place finish in the 35-39 age division. Her race unfolded in two distinct phases: a controlled, even effort through the first 20 miles, holding just under 8:00 per mile, followed by a natural easing into the high-8s and low-9s per mile as fatigue set in over the closing 10K. Miles 11 through 13 stood out as her strongest stretch, with a 7:13 split at mile 11 marking her fastest mile of the day and helping anchor a sub-7:55 average pace through that section. Given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, that consistency through the middle miles reflects well-managed effort before the late-race pace adjustment.
