The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Zach Cygan won the Open division at Boston 2026 in 55:57, first of 1,233 men.
The wall balls were the standout, 3:41 quicker than the median and 19th of 1,233. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:39 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 3:17, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and Toronto 2026 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
