Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Mateo Fagan #11277 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Strong Middle Miles Anchor Marathon Finish Mateo Fagan finished the Boulderthon Marathon in 4:12:50, averaging 9:39 per mile across the 26.2-mile course. The race unfolded in clear phases. Fagan opened near 9:00 pace through the first 10K, then found his best form between miles 10 and 18, holding steady between 8:27 and 8:50 per mile the race's strongest sustained stretch. That effort carried him through the Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, a section that arrives late in the marathon layout. The closing miles slowed markedly after mile 20 as fatigue set in, before he brought it home onto the historic Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, a finish shared by every distance in the event. The effort came at altitude, with Boulder sitting above 5,000 feet, adding context to the overall effort across the marathon distance.
