Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Brittany Witte #20485 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Nearly 17 Minutes Faster: A Breakthrough Half Brittany Witte cut her half marathon time from 2:11:40 to 1:54:25 this year, improving her per-mile pace from 10:03 to 8:44 and climbing from 2671st to 1103rd overall in a larger field. Her gender-division standing jumped from 1187th to 343rd, a clear sign of sharper, more consistent pacing across the full 13.1 miles. The race unfolded evenly, with early miles settling into the 8:50s before a strong middle stretch from miles 4 to 6 dropped as low as 8:17, the fastest mile of her day. A brief rise near mile 11 (9:15) gave way to a confident close, with miles 12 and 13 back down to 8:33 and 8:32. That finish came on this year's reworked half marathon course, its net elevation gain trimmed to 203 feet, at over 5,000 feet of Boulder altitude.
