Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Ian Britt #20946 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Pace Anchors a Top-Tier Half Ian Britt finished the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:31:42, an average pace of 7:00 per mile that placed him 162nd overall and 137th among men in a field of 7,223. Britt ran his first six miles in 41:15, a 6:52 average pace that held remarkably steady mile to mile. A stretch through miles seven and eight cost him some time as his pace eased to 7:28 and 7:33, coinciding with his approach to the lululemon Power-Up Zone near mile 9.5. He answered with a strong closing sequence, covering the final three miles in 20:48 a 6:56 average including a race-best full-mile split of 6:48 to close things out. That rally through the finish, run at Boulder's altitude above 5,000 feet, capped a well-managed effort from start to finish.
