Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Egan Johnson #20990 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Fast Start Fuels a Strong Half Marathon Finish Egan Johnson ran 1:37:58 to finish the Boulderthon Half Marathon, placing 292nd overall and 239th among men in a field of 7,223. The first 5 miles came quick, with Johnson clicking off sub-7:00 splits and reaching the mile 5 mark in 34:10 before easing into a steadier rhythm through the back half of the course. That opening stretch, averaging under 6:50 per mile, stood as the fastest mile-plus segment of his race, and though his pace settled into the 7:30-8:00 range afterward, he closed with a strong final mile of 7:15. Johnson's steady effort carried him through downtown Boulder's Pearl Street Mall finish, a fitting close in a city sitting at over 5,000 feet of elevation.
