Strong Closing Miles Power a Top-Tier Half Marathon Finish Kobe Christiansen finished the 2026 Boulderthon Half Marathon in 1:34:46, an average pace of 7:14 per mile, placing 214th overall and 174th among men out of the field of 7,223. Christiansen's pacing held remarkably steady through the middle miles, settling into a 7:26-7:30 per mile rhythm from mile 3 through mile 10. He then turned in his standout stretch of the race over the final three miles, covering miles 11 through 13 in 6:51, 6:39, and 6:12 respectively a sharp negative split that pushed his overall pace down to 7:14 per mile by the finish. That surge carried him across downtown Boulder's Pearl Street Mall, capping a race run at over 5,000 feet of elevation with his fastest sustained running of the day.
