The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jonathan Sanford finished 387th of 418 men in the Open division at Boston 2026, in 2:11:11.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 4:15 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:29 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
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.
