Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Velvet Robinson #30212 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Start Fuels a Solid 10K Finish Velvet Robinson completed the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:11:49, an average pace of 11:35 per mile across the 6.2-mile course. Robinson's opening mile was her fastest of the race at 10:03, and she held closely to that rhythm through the first three miles, with cumulative pace still under 11:00 per mile at the 3-mile mark. Splits eased gradually thereafter, with mile five to six proving her slowest stretch. That opening mile stands as the standout segment of her race, and building a touch more cushion in the middle miles could help preserve that early pace over the full distance. The race finished on the Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, a fitting close to a course run at altitude above 5,000 feet.
