Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Daniel Tyson #27518 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Pacing Anchors a Consistent Half Daniel Tyson covered the half marathon in 1:42:57, holding a tight band between 7:44 and 8:11 per mile for nearly the entire distance. His cumulative pace never drifted outside a seven-second window from mile one through the finish, reflecting well-controlled effort across changing terrain. His fastest mile came late, a 7:31 split at mile 12, the quickest full mile of his race and a strong surge before the final stretch into downtown Boulder. Given that Boulder sits above 5,000 feet, sustaining such an even pace through the back half speaks well of his pacing discipline. A touch more consistency in miles 6 through 11, where splits crept toward 8:06-8:11, could be a small area to target for an even smoother progression next time.
