Strong Early Pace Carries Steady Half Marathon Finish Evan Gutierrez completed the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:35:16, an average pace of 7:16 per mile, placing 227th overall and 185th among men in a field of 7,223. Gutierrez opened fast, covering the first six miles in roughly 6:46 pace, before easing through the middle miles as the pace settled into the 7:30-8:00 range from miles 7 through 12. He closed strong, dropping his final mile to 6:45, matching his early-race rhythm.
