Consistent Pacing Carries a Solid 10K Finish Yana Waegener completed the 10K in 1:04:37, averaging 10:25 per mile. Her race opened quickly, with the first two miles clicking off in 9:55 and 9:59the fastest mile-plus stretch of her day. A brief dip through mile three (10:48) gave way to a strong rebound across miles four and five, both under 10:15, before the pace eased to 11:30 over the final mile. That opening two-mile push stands out as the clear highlight of her race, showing she can hold sub-10 pace early. Running at Boulders altitude of over 5,000 feet, this kind of front-loaded effort is worth noting for pacing strategy in future startsperhaps holding a touch more in reserve for the closing miles could smooth out the finish even further.
