Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Micah Clemons #12438 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Strong Early Pace Anchors a Top-Tier Finish Micah Clemons crossed in 3:43:22, placing 178th overall and 152nd among men in the field of 3,305. His race built from a swift opening: cumulative pace held near 7:22-7:30 min/mile through the first twelve miles, before easing gradually through the middle miles and settling into the 8:00-9:00 min/mile range by mile 19. The closing miles brought further slowing, with elapsed pace finishing at 8:31 min/mile for the full 26.2 miles. The standout stretch came in miles 1 through 12, where Clemons covered that middle-early segment at roughly 7:30 min/mile pace, the fastest sustained running of his day. That effort came at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, a factor worth noting given the strength of his early miles.
