Remarkably Consistent Across Three Years Bryan Wharton finished the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:51:12, essentially matching his 1:51:11 from 2023 and 1:51:24 from 2024 a striking display of pacing consistency across three consecutive finishes at the same distance. His cumulative pace held steady between 8:17 and 8:36 min/mile through the first ten miles, dipping to 9:26 for mile 11 before rebounding to 8:17 over the final mile his fastest full-mile stretch of the race. Miles 4 and 5 stood out as his strongest sustained running, both clocked at 7:57. The race finished on the Pearl Street Mall in downtown Boulder, a fitting close to another steady, well-managed effort at altitude above 5,000 feet.
