Even Early Pace Sets Up a Hard-Earned Marathon Finish Antonio Gordon completed the marathon in 3:59:56, averaging 9:09 per mile across 26.2 miles. His race was built on a strong first two-thirds: from mile 1 through mile 17, he held a remarkably steady pace near 7:50 per mile, showing excellent control through the race's early and middle stages. The final miles told a different story, as his per-mile pace eased through the 18-23 mile stretch before settling again over the closing miles to the finish. The marathon route carries runners out past Boulder Reservoir and through Boulder County backroads before finishing on the Pearl Street Mall. Gordon's pace shifted through the mile 22-23 stretch, right around where the lululemon Power-Up Zone sits near mile 22.5, before he steadied his effort again for the run into downtown Boulder.
