Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Cooper Vincent #22021 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Early Miles Anchor a Strong Half Marathon Finish Cooper Vincent completed the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 2:13:43, finishing with an elapsed pace of 10:12 per mile. Vincent's fastest mile-plus stretch came between miles 3 and 6, where he covered three miles in roughly 29 minutes, settling into a rhythm near 9:45-9:50 per mile. That opening third of the race was the most consistent portion of his effort, with pace holding tightly in the 9:349:56 range before easing slightly over the second half of the course. The final miles saw a gradual increase in pace, with mile 11 marking his slowest split of the day. Given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, maintaining form through the back half is no small feat. Vincent might consider building a bit more reserve into the middle miles to soften that late-race fade.
