Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Mark De Wit #42300 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Steady Pace Anchored by a Strong Middle Mile Mark De Wit completed the 2026 Boulderthon 5K in 26:13, an average pace of 8:27 per mile. His race built through a quick opening mile of 8:37, then he found his rhythm with a strong second mile at 8:12 his fastest of the day before easing slightly to 8:40 over the closing stretch. That middle mile stood out as his most efficient running, showing solid strength mid-race. Closing pace dipped a touch as the finish neared, a common pattern worth keeping in mind for pacing the final stretch in future 5Ks. Overall, a controlled and consistent effort across the distance.
