The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Esteban Padilla finished 463rd of 1,233 men in the Open division at Boston 2026, in 1:27:02, faster than 62% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 78% of the field beaten on the runs, 39% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:47 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:42 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and Boston 2025 were 2:50 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
