The race, in words
Paul Vo finished 1,195th of 1,463 men in the Open division at Boston 2025, in 1:47:31.
A station race more than a running one: 38% of the field beaten on the stations, against 8% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:20 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 14:10 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Boston gave the field time back: about 2:03 faster than the average race this season, by 807 athletes who raced both.
