Date: Sept. 27, 2026 Participant: Anna Chan #41098 Race: 2026 Boulderthon 5K Distance: 3.1 miles

Strong Start Fades in Final Mile Anna Chan completed the 2026 Boulderthon 5K in 32:14. Her race built solidly through the first two miles before easing in the closing stretch. Chan opened with a 9:54 first mile, then quickened to a 9:22 second mile her fastest of the race. The final mile slowed to 11:46, closing out her overall pace at 10:24 per mile. Running the distance at over 5,000 feet of elevation in downtown Boulder, Chan's early pacing reflected a strong sense of control before the late fade. A touch more evenness between miles two and three could help her sustain that early rhythm through the finish in future races.
