Steady Pacing Carries Marathoner to a Top 6% Finish Finn Conn crossed the line in 3:45:14, placing 198th overall and 167th among men in the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon. His race unfolded with remarkable consistency through the middle miles, holding between 8:20 and 8:40 per mile from start to midpoint before finding his sharpest stretch between miles 9 and 11, covering that span at roughly 7:56 per mile average. The final 10K saw a gradual easing of pace, moving from the 8:30s into the 9:30s as he approached the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5, a challenge made more notable given Boulder's altitude above 5,000 feet. Even with that late fade, Finn closed strong, dropping back to an 8:33 final mile pace to finish with authority on the Pearl Street Mall. A well-paced effort overall, with the early-middle miles standing out as the race's high point.
