Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Matthew Hall #25666 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Early Pace Anchors a Strong Half-Marathon Finish Matthew Hall covered the half marathon in 1:46:50, holding between 7:51 and 8:00 per mile through the first ten miles before a brief dip to 9:22 in mile 11 and a recovery to 8:088:17 over the closing two miles. His fastest mile came early, a 7:40 split in mile five, the quickest stretch of his race, following a string of miles in the high 7:50s that set the tone for a controlled effort. Hall passed through mile 9.5, near where the course's lululemon Power-Up Zone sits along the half marathon route, in the middle of that steady 7:588:17 stretch, keeping his rhythm intact before the late-race dip. Racing at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, his ability to stay within a tight pace band for the bulk of the distance stands out as the defining feature of the run.
