Strong Front Half Fuels a Steady Marathon Finish Cole Behringer covered the Boulderthon marathon in 4:21:31, an overall pace of 9:58 per mile. He built a big cushion early, running the first 10 miles in 89:26 (8:56 average) before cumulative pace gradually eased through the back half, settling near 10:00 per mile by the finish. The middle miles from 6 through 9 were his most efficient stretch, holding between 8:46 and 9:04 per mile as he passed the field steadily. The final miles slowed into the 1113 minute range before he closed with an 11:17 twenty-sixth mile onto the Pearl Street Mall. Racing at over 5,000 feet of altitude, Behringer's disciplined opening pace set up a race that held together well across 26.2 miles.
