Steady Pacing Powers a Strong Half Marathon Finish Ashleigh Aoueille completed the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:53:43, an 8:40 min/mile pace, finishing in the top 15% of the field. Her race showed remarkable consistency, with cumulative pace holding between 8:34 and 8:43 min/mile from mile 3 through the finish. Miles 3-4 stood out as her strongest mile-plus stretch, with splits of 8:30 and 8:10 pushing her elapsed pace to its fastest point of the race. She maintained composure through the back half, closing with an 8:26 split at mile 12 despite the effort accumulated over the previous ten miles. Boulder's elevation, sitting above 5,000 feet, adds context to the discipline reflected in these even splits across 13.1 miles.
