Strong Start Fades Into a Steady Finish Tania Agness completed the half marathon in 1:48:40, an 8:17 min/mile pace. She opened fast, holding 7:39 min/mile pace through the first two miles, the quickest mile-plus stretch of her race. From there, cumulative pace eased steadily mile by mile, dipping to a 9:09 split at mile 10 before she rallied over the closing miles, trimming back to an 8:43 split by the finish on the Pearl Street Mall. Running at over 5,000 feet of elevation in Boulder, Agness's early miles reflect well on her pacing instincts even as the second half cost her some of that early speed. Given how she closed with a stronger finishing mile, she might consider settling into a slightly more even effort in the middle miles next time to preserve more of that early rhythm through the finish.
