Strong Start Fuels a Top-10% Half Marathon Finish Stephan Jenkins crossed the line in 1:38:07, good for 297th overall and 243rd among men in a field of 7,223 at the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon. That result lands him in the race's top 10 percent, a clear step up from his 2024 5K showing, where he placed 100th overall. Jenkins went out fast, covering the opening mile in 6:23 his quickest of the day before settling into a steady rhythm through the middle miles, holding roughly 7:00-7:15 per mile pace through mile six. The pace eased gradually over the second half, closing with an 8:02 final mile as cumulative pace drifted from 6:23 to 7:28 by the finish. That stretch through mile nine and ten came near the course's lululemon Power-Up Zone, positioned around mile 9.5 on the half marathon route through Boulder County, at elevation above 5,000 feet.
