Fast Finish in Flagstaff Colors: Day Cracks Top Five at Boulderthon 5K Tyler Day finished 5th overall and 5th among men in the 5K at the 2026 Boulderthon, crossing in 14:17. His race built with a strong surge through the middle mile before he had to dig in over the closing stretch to secure his top-five finish. Day's second mile was his best of the day, covered in 4:05, a pace that pulled his cumulative time down to 4:16 min/mile through 2 miles. The final mile slowed to 5:26, a notable shift from the pace he'd established, but he'd banked enough early speed to hold position. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Day's opening two miles at sub-4:30 pace stand out as the foundation for his result.
