Strong Start Carries Steady Finish Audrey Gatlin ran 1:46:40 (8:08/mile) at the 2026 Boulderthon half marathon. Her race opened fast, with the first six miles covered in 46:32 an average of roughly 7:45 per mile before the middle miles eased into the 8:30s and 8:58 range through mile 11. She closed strong, dropping back to 7:54 and 8:07 over the final two miles to finish on the Pearl Street Mall. That opening six-mile stretch stood out as the fastest sustained running of her race, built on paces in the 7:30s and 7:40s before the gradual fade. The 2026 half course carried a redesigned, lighter climb profile, trimming net elevation gain to 203 feet useful context given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet.
