Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Raj Jasani #41278 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Strong Start Fades Down the Stretch Raj Jasani finished the 5K in 35:14, covering the opening two miles in 20:52 a 10:26 per-mile pace before the closing mile slowed to 13:17. That shift moved him from 976th to 923rd overall between the two-mile mark and the finish, reflecting a race that began briskly and eased back in its final third. The first two miles stand out as the strongest stretch of the day, with pace nearly a full minute faster per mile than the third. Given that Boulder sits above 5,000 feet, holding that early rhythm as long as he did is a solid building block. Looking ahead, working on sustaining that early pace through the final mile could help even out the overall effort.
