Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Gabriel Marquez #10618 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Marathon Distance: 26.2 miles

Steady Miles Give Way to a Determined Final Push Gabriel Marquez covered the Boulderthon Marathon in 4:23:08, holding a tight 9:349:48 min/mile pace through the middle miles before settling into the low 10:00s over the closing stretch. His race built patiently: the first ten miles clicked by in the high 9:30s to 9:40s, and mile 11 stood out as his fastest of the day at 8:49, a strong surge before the pace naturally eased through the second half. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Gabriel passed through the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 22.5 as his cumulative pace sat at 9:54 min/mile, holding form well as fatigue mounted late. With his overall rhythm and a well-managed finish, this was a race built on consistency rather than late collapsean encouraging foundation to build from for his next marathon effort.
