The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Boston 2026, michael sclafani crossed the line in 1:15:33: 158th of 1,233 men, faster than 87% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:56 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:51 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:25, was faster than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and New York 2026 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
