The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:32:29 at Boston 2026 put Darren Pollack on the age-group podium: 2nd of 15 in the 55–59 age group.
No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:18 of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:01 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and Washington DC 2026 were 1:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
