Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Mason Richard #41418 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Strong Start, Steady Finish at 5K Mason Richard covered the 5K in 35:55, finishing among the 2,677 in the field. His pace picked up over the first two miles, dropping from 10:42 to a race-best 10:21, before easing to 13:46 over the closing mile as the cumulative pace settled to 11:35 min/mile. Racing at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Richard's second mile stood out as his fastest full-mile stretch of the day. Building on that opening pace over the final stretch could offer a smoother path to an even finish next time out.
