Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Carly Jaksic #11797 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Early Miles, Strong Closing Kick Carly Jaksic finished the marathon in 4:29:16, averaging 10:16 per mile. She ran her most even stretch over the first ten miles, covering them in 1:38:23 for a 9:50 per mile pace, before easing gradually through the middle of the course. Her final mile was her fastest since that opening stretch, clocking in at 9:40 as she closed out the race. Pace settled near 11 minutes per mile in the low-20s miles, right around where she would have passed the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, a natural stage of covering 26.2 miles at altitude in Boulder, which sits above 5,000 feet. The rebound in her final mile made for a strong finish onto the Pearl Street Mall.
