Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Nathan Jovanovic #20842 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Steady Miles Give Way to a Strong Closing Kick Nathan Jovanovic finished the Boulderthon Half Marathon in 2:27:37. He ran a controlled, even race through the first ten miles, holding between 11:00 and 11:43 per mile and settling into an 11:16-11:23 elapsed pace by the midway point. Mile 11 slowed to 13:30, but Jovanovic responded well, closing with back-to-back miles of 9:30 and 9:41 his fastest full miles of the race to bring his overall elapsed pace back down to 11:16 min/mile at the finish. That final surge, cutting nearly two minutes per mile off his mid-race pace, stands out as the highlight of his day. Running at Boulder's altitude of over 5,000 feet, Jovanovic can take confidence from how strongly he handled the closing stretch into the Pearl Street Mall.
