The race, in words
In the Open division at Boston 2026, Emily Stange crossed the line in 1:21:32: 83rd of 722 women, faster than 89% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 96% of the field beaten on the runs, 74% on the stations. The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:36 ahead of the median. Quick through the roxzone: 5:24, ahead of 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and Boston 2025 were 1:30 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
