Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Gia Albines #32801 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Strong Start Carries Through a Steady 10K Finish Gia Albines completed the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:03:35, an average pace of 10:15 per mile. Albines opened fast, covering the first two miles in 9:17 and 9:08, before settling into a steadier rhythm through the middle miles, holding between 9:56 and 11:13 per mile from mile three through five. That early pace gave her a cushion that carried through to the finish, with the overall effort reflecting a well-managed race from start to finish. Boulder's elevation, over 5,000 feet, adds a layer of difficulty to any pace management, making her consistent middle miles a solid piece of execution. Runners looking to build on this could consider a touch more evenness between miles three and four, where pace shifted by nearly a minute.
