Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Luis Carale #22700 Race: 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon Distance: 13.1 miles

Consistent Pacing Delivers a Personal-Best Half Luis Carale ran 1:38:38 to finish 309th overall and 253rd among men, good for 34th in the men's 20-24 division. The result marks his fastest Boulderthon half marathon yet, improving on 1:42:46 in 2025 and 1:46:36 in 2024. Carale's pacing was remarkably even, holding within seconds of 7:30 per mile from start to finish. His strongest mile came early, a 7:18 split from mile 4 to 5, while he closed with a 7:22 twelfth mile before easing slightly over the final stretch. That kind of control held up well given Boulder's elevation above 5,000 feet, a backdrop that makes steady splits like these especially notable.
