Strong Finishing Kick Seals a Top-10% Result Adam Boyle crossed the line in 1:44:35, good for 518th overall and 398th among men in a field of 7,223 at the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon a top-10% finish overall. His pacing held remarkably steady across the distance, hovering between 7:58 and 8:25 per mile through the middle miles before tightening in the second half. The closing stretch stood out: miles 12 and 13 came in at 7:42 and 7:37, his fastest sustained running of the race, pulling his overall pace down to 7:59 per mile by the finish. That surge came at elevation, with Boulder sitting above 5,000 feet, making the late-race consistency notable. Boyle might consider whether an earlier push through the middle miles, where pace drifted closer to 8:10-8:25, could translate that strong closing speed into an even faster overall time.
