The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:38:56 at Ottawa 2026 put Marc Lalonde 276th of 281 men in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 7:51 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:45 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Ottawa 2026 and Boston 2025 were 1:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
