Kim's early miles were her sharpest, clicking through miles 1-4 between 8:13 and 8:28 and settling her cumulative pace near 8:19-8:21. A gradual fade followed from miles 7-10, where splits drifted into the 8:57-9:04 range, before she rallied over the final 5K, closing miles 12-13 at 8:53 and 8:36 to bring her cumulative pace back to 8:42. That last mile marked her strongest full-mile stretch of the closing miles, a solid finish into downtown Boulder on the Pearl Street Mall.
