Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Caitlin Dinges #26219 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Pacing Through the Middle, Strong Kick to the Finish Caitlin Dinges completed the half marathon in 2:27:00, holding a consistent rhythm through the bulk of the course. Her mile splits sat in the 11:0411:22 range for the first seven miles, dipped briefly to 12:01 at mile eight, then settled back into her established rhythm before closing hard. Her final mile was the highlight of the race, clocked at 10:26 the fastest full mile of her day as she pushed through the last stretch into downtown Boulder. That surge capped a race run in the thin air of a city that sits above 5,000 feet, a subtle backdrop to her sustained effort. Overall, the race showed a runner who found her footing early and finished with something extra in reserve, a pattern worth building on for future long-distance efforts.
