Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Minhee Kwon #31307 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Nearly 15 Minutes Faster: A Breakout 10K Performance Minhee Kwon crossed in 47:38, finishing 109th overall out of 3,071 in the field and 31st among women. That's a sharp jump from her 2025 Boulderthon 10K, where she ran 1:02:54 a improvement of over 15 minutes this time around. Kwon's pacing showed real control across the distance. She opened with a 7:19 first mile, then hit her fastest mile of the race in mile two at 7:10. Miles three and four eased slightly to the high 7:30s/7:50s before she rebounded with a 7:18 fifth mile, closing steady through the finish. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, this kind of pacing discipline stands out a race well executed from start to finish.
