Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Mckenna Hauber #31113 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Fast Start Sets the Tone, Steady Pace Carries Her Home Mckenna Hauber opened her 10K in Pueblo-quick fashion, clocking 10:11 for the first mile the fastest mile of her race before settling into a gradually lengthening rhythm across the middle miles. Each subsequent mile ticked up incrementally, from 10:13 to 11:44 to 12:13, reflecting a race that eased rather than surged, before a final mile of 14:15 closed things out. She finished in 1:13:13. Boulder's elevation, sitting above 5,000 feet, adds context to any pacing shift over the course of a race like this. Given how well that opening mile went out, Hauber might consider experimenting with a slightly more even split next time banking a touch less early speed in exchange for steadier miles late.
