Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Shane Dockery #41589 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Strong Middle Mile Anchors a Solid 5K Shane Dockery finished the 2026 Boulderthon 5K in 23:19, a slight step back from his 22:03 at the 2025 Boulderthon. His pace moved from a 7:26 opening mile to a quick 6:39 second mile before easing to 8:22 over the closing stretch, giving the race a fast-middle shape rather than a steady build. That second mile was Dockery's standout stretch, the fastest of his race and well under his overall 7:31 min/mile pace. With Boulder's elevation over 5,000 feet as backdrop, holding that surge before the finish reflects well on his pacing instincts, even as the final mile cost him time compared to last year's more even effort.
