Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Jesse Lesage #32012 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 10K Distance: 6.2 miles

Steady Start Gives Way to a Strong Mid-Race Surge Jesse Lesage finished the 2026 Boulderthon 10K in 1:02:12, holding a cumulative pace right around 10 minutes per mile for much of the race. After settling in near that mark through the first three miles, she picked up the tempo notably in miles four and five, running 9:26 and 8:57 her fastest mile of the race before easing back over the final stretch to the mall. Boulder's elevation, sitting above 5,000 feet, adds context to any pace run there, and Lesage's mid-race stretch stands out as the clear highlight of her effort, showing a runner who found her rhythm once warmed up.
