Steady Early Pace Gives Way to a Hard-Fought Finish Oliver Oberheide completed the Boulderthon Marathon in 4:09:36. He settled into the high-8:00s per mile through the opening 10K, then tightened his cumulative pace to 8:26/mile by mile 17 before the closing miles slowed steadily, with his final mile split landing near 13:00 and overall elapsed pace finishing at 9:31/mile. His strongest stretch came between miles 9 and 13, where he covered four miles in roughly 32 minutes an 8:02/mile clip, the fastest sustained segment of his race. That effort came before the course reached the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, shortly after which his pace eased over the closing miles. Racing at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, he carried his effort to the finish on the Pearl Street Mall.
