Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Cayden Crisanti #10214 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Fast Start Fuels a Strong Marathon Finish Cayden Crisanti completed the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 4:37:18. Through the first nine miles, Crisanti was moving briskly, holding sub-8:35 pace and reaching the 9-mile mark in 1:17:04. That opening stretch stands as his standout mile-plus effort of the day, banking time before the back half of the course pulled his overall pace down toward the finish, with the final miles settling near 10:35 per mile on average. Crisanti's race unfolded in two distinct halves: a controlled, quick opening 10K-to-10-mile push followed by a gradual, steady fade over the remaining miles into downtown Boulder. That pattern, fast out and patient home, reflects the demands of running at altitude in a city that sits above 5,000 feet. The finish on the Pearl Street Mall capped a race shaped largely by the strength of those early miles.
