Strong Front Half Fuels Solid Marathon Finish Riley Huseby finished the marathon in 3:43:40, an overall pace of 8:32 per mile, placing 182nd overall and 156th among men in a field of 3,305 runners. He opened conservatively with a 7:42 first mile before settling into a steady rhythm through the middle of the course. Huseby's pacing held tightly in the 7:207:40 range from mile 9 through mile 17, his most consistent stretch of the day, before the effort cost him in the closing miles, where per-mile splits slowed into the 9- to 13-minute range past mile 20. That late fade pushed his cumulative pace from 7:33 at mile 17 to 8:32 by the finish. Given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, the sustained mid-race pace stands out as the strongest segment of his race.
