Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Allen Alvarez Loya #32565 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Strong Start Carries a Steady 10K Finish Allen Alvarez Loya covered the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 49:48, an 8:01 min/mile average pace. He opened fast, clicking off the first mile in 7:27 and holding sub-7:45 pace through mile two before easing slightly as the race progressed. Miles three and four ticked up toward 8:09 and 8:22, but he answered with his strongest mile of the day between miles four and five, dropping back to 7:31 before the pace eased again over the closing mile. Racing at altitude in Boulder, sitting above 5,000 feet, Alvarez Loya's ability to rebound with a sub-7:35 mile late in the race stands out as the highlight of his effort. A touch more evenness between miles three and four could help smooth the overall pacing curve in future 10Ks.
