Steady Split Execution Anchors a Near-Repeat Finish Jill Truesdale finished the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:51:50, just 41 seconds off her 2025 result of 1:51:09 and nearly matching her 8:29 min/mile pace with an 8:32 min/mile average this year. Truesdale built an efficient front half, holding 8:098:17 min/mile pace through mile six before easing slightly through the middle miles. Her strongest mile-plus stretch came early, miles one through six, sustained right around 8:11 min/mile the most consistent running of her race. From there, pace settled into the high 8:20s to low 9:00s, a natural progression given the effort already banked, before a solid closing mile at 8:26 min/mile. This is Truesdale's second consecutive Boulderthon Half Marathon, and her overall consistency year over year stands out.
