Ben Schneiderman won the men’s citizen’s race at the Bolder Boulder, using a strong final push to finish in 31 minutes, 1.88 seconds.
“It’s pretty exciting,” Schneiderman said. “I qualified for the Olympic trials in the marathon in December at the California International Marathon, so I kind of decided to take a break from the full marathon and run a couple of shorter races after that before the fall. So I kind of picked out Bolder Boulder because it’s local and it’s a great race. It feels good.”Schneiderman was in third for much of the race, but surged past Romine and Sannes on the final uphill stretch.
“I’m strong on hills. The uphill final mile definitely helped me. Usually on those downhill stretches is where it seemed like they would pull away a little bit and then I would get back on the uphill a little bit.” Schneiderman, who graduated from Mines with his PhD in December, had run in the Bolder Boulder a couple of times before, but this was his first time since 2015.
Also running Monday was Schneiderman’s brother, Noah, who finished in 35:23, as well as former Mines teammate Jake Mitchem, who was fourth .
