The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Alex Barrow finished 1,023rd of 1,233 men in the Open division at Boston 2026, in 1:51:40.
The stations carried this race: faster than 93% of the field across all eight, against 1% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:37 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:04 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Boston 2026 and New York 2025 were 1:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
