Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Juyoung Oh #21029 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Strong Start Anchors a Steady Half Marathon Finish Juyoung Oh completed the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:44:22, an overall pace of 7:58 per mile. Her opening mile was her fastest of the day at 6:54, and she carried that early speed through a strong first 5K before easing pace gradually across the middle miles. Miles 11 through 13 showed a solid closing effort, holding in the 7:40s to finish, a sign of good pacing control late in the race. The race unfolded in a classic positive-split shape: fast out of downtown Boulder, a gradual climb in per-mile times through the middle miles, then a rally over the closing 2 miles. That final stretch, averaging under 7:42 per mile, stood out as the strongest sustained mile-plus segment after the early opening miles. Given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, this even effort reflects well-managed pacing across the full distance.
