The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gene Espinosa finished 398th of 418 men in the Open division at Boston 2026, in 2:20:32.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 10:16. The race faded late: the second half went 4:58 worse against the middle of the field than the first. 13:21 in the roxzone was slower than 95% of the field.
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.
