Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Ciera Volanos #31346 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Start Fuels a Solid 10K Finish Ciera Volanos completed the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:05:04, an average pace of 10:29 per mile. Her opening mile was her fastest, clocked at 9:10, before a gradual easing through the middle miles and a final mile at 12:25. The pacing pattern showed a strong, controlled start that gave way to a steady decline across the back half of the course. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Volanos's early pace stood out as the highlight of her race, with her cumulative time staying under a 10:00 mile pace through the first four miles. Should she look to build on this result, working on sustaining that early rhythm deeper into the race could be a rewarding focus for next time.
