Steady Pacing Anchors a Strong Marathon Finish Martin Garcia-Huidobro completed the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 3:49:21, a modest step back from his 3:45:54 finish in the 2025 race over the same distance. His pace held in a tight band through the first twenty miles, consistently between 8:33 and 8:58 per mile, before a rougher patch from miles 2124 pushed him into the 9:30s. He closed strong, covering his final mile in 7:54 his fastest full mile of the day to bring his overall elapsed pace to 8:45 per mile. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Garcia-Huidobro showed his sharpest control in the middle miles, particularly mile 11, clocked at 8:01, well under his overall average. That surge reflects strong pacing discipline through the race's midsection, even as the closing miles proved tougher than his 2025 effort.
