Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Olivia Hurst #23589 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Strong Start Carries Through a Steady Half Olivia Hurst finished the Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:43:22, an average pace of 7:53 per mile. Her first six miles were the fastest stretch of the race, clicking off between 7:17 and 7:38 per mile and settling her into a rhythm through the opening 10K. Miles 7 through 11 eased slightly, with pace drifting into the 8:00s, before she closed with a strong 12th mile at 7:35 and held on to finish near her overall average. Boulder sits at over 5,000 feet of elevation, a backdrop for the steady effort she sustained across the second half of the course. With a solid opening and a well-controlled finish, the next step for Hurst could be smoothing the middle miles to bring the whole race closer to that early pace.
