Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Gretchen Slattum #32053 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Strong Start Anchors a Steady 10K Finish Gretchen Slattum completed the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:01:13, an overall pace of 9:52 per mile. Her race was front-loaded: the first two miles clicked off at 8:38 and 8:36, the fastest miles of her race, before the pace eased through the middle and back half, settling near 11 minutes per mile by the close. That opening pair of miles stands out as the strongest stretch on the day, giving her a cushion that carried through to the finish. With Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet as a backdrop, holding that early rhythm before easing off is a solid foundation. A touch more evenness between miles three and six could be a good focus for next time, if she wants a bit more consistency across the back half.
