Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Angie Tong #32229 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Push Through a Shifting Middle Mile Angie Tong finished the 10K in 1:01:49, an average pace of 9:58 per mile. Her race opened quickly, with the first two miles clicking off at 9:16 and 8:57, before the middle stretch pulled her cumulative pace back toward 9:56 by the finish. That second mile, at 8:57, stood as her fastest full mile of the day, and the closing miles held steady without further slowing, showing good control once the pace settled. The 10K stepped off at 8:10 AM, later in the morning as temperatures were rising, and every distance at Boulderthon finishes on the Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, itself sitting above 5,000 feet. Given that altitude, holding a mid-9-minute pace through the closing miles reflects consistent effort. A worthwhile focus going forward could be smoothing the middle-mile dip to keep the early rhythm going longer.
