Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Levi Mason #13416 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Miles Give Way to a Hard-Fought Finish Levi Mason completed the marathon in 4:34:49, an average pace of 10:29 per mile. After opening near 10:30 pace, he found his rhythm from miles 7 through 11, covering that stretch in roughly 9:18 per mile the fastest sustained running of his race. He held mid-10:00s pace through the middle miles before the final 10K slowed into the 11:0014:00 range, with mile 21 alone taking 14:09. Boulder sits above 5,000 feet, a backdrop worth noting given the closing miles. The course also passes the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, an area Mason moved through around 11:08 pace as fatigue set in. A touch more discipline in the second half could help him carry his early-race strength further into the marathon's final miles.
