Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Lindsey Houldson #41583 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Strong Start Fuels Solid 5K Finish Lindsey Houldson completed the 2026 Boulderthon 5K in 24:51, an 8:01 min/mile pace. Houldson's race showed a fast opening mile of 7:46, followed by an even quicker second mile at 7:04 her best mile of the day. The final mile slowed to 9:12, pulling her cumulative pace back to 8:00 min/mile by the finish. Given the strength of that middle mile, there may be an opportunity to sustain more of that pace through the closing stretch. Houldson's 5K unfolded entirely within downtown Boulder, a city sitting over 5,000 feet in elevation itself a factor worth acknowledging in any road performance there.
