Steady Pacing Through Two-Thirds of the Marathon Before a Late Fade Lindsay Stephan finished the 2026 Boulderthon Marathon in 4:12:32, averaging 9:38 per mile across the 26.2-mile course. Stephan ran a controlled, even race through the first 19 miles, holding between 9:05 and 9:12 per mile and never straying far from that band. Her strongest stretch came from mile 8 to mile 11, where she covered three miles in roughly 8:44 per mile, her fastest sustained running of the day. The pace eased over the final 10K, settling into the 10:3011:00 range as she passed near mile 22.5, where the course's lululemon Power-Up Zone sits, before closing with a 9:58 last mile. Running at altitude in Boulder, over 5,000 feet, she can take confidence in the discipline shown through the race's first three-quarters.
