Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Becky Whitehead #30465 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Effort Builds Through a Slowing Middle Before a Determined Close Becky Whitehead finished the 10K in 1:22:06, an even-effort run that opened fast and gradually eased as the miles accumulated. Her opening mile was her sharpest of the day at 10:50, and cumulative pace drifted from 11:28 through the second mile to 13:13 by the finish, reflecting a race that settled into a more moderate rhythm after a strong start. Boulder's elevation, sitting above 5,000 feet, adds context to any pacing shift over a 6.2-mile course. Whitehead's early mile stands as the highlight of her race, and building a touch more evenness between that opening pace and the closing miles could be a worthwhile focus for her next 10K.
