Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Andrew Schneider #11099 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Effort Yields Consistent Marathon Pace Through Boulder's Backroads Andrew Schneider finished the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 4:23:28, averaging 10:03 per mile. After a brisk opening three miles near 9:50 pace, he eased through miles four and five before settling into the race's most consistent stretch miles 11 through 17 holding between 8:51 and 9:57 per mile, his strongest sustained running of the day. The final miles brought a natural cooldown before a strong closing mile back near 9:39 pace into the finish. Racing at over 5,000 feet of elevation, Schneider covered a course that winds past Boulder Reservoir and through Boulder County backroads before finishing on the historic Pearl Street Mall. His late push through the mid-20s came right around the course's lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, a fitting boost before the final stretch downtown.
