Steady Pace Holds Firm Before a Strong Closing Kick Kyle Simmons completed the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:44:10, an average pace of 7:57 per mile. His cumulative pace held in a tight band between 7:56 and 8:10 through the middle miles, showing consistent effort across the race. The final two miles brought his strongest running of the day, with mile 12 clocked at 7:13, well under his overall average and the fastest mile of his race. Boulder sits at over 5,000 feet of elevation, a backdrop for the steady pacing Simmons maintained throughout. With the closing miles run faster than the rest of the course, he might consider whether a touch more patience early could set up an even stronger finish next time.
