Runners in the four open waves will cross the finish line at different times, but the finish line will remain open until approximately 5:30 p.m. Advertisement In previous years, the course closed five hours after the final racer crossed the starting line. This year, the BAA will shut down the course a bit earlier with a hard stop around 5:30 p.m., meaning anyone who starts in the last wave and averages more than a 13:44 minute-per-mile pace could be at risk of having the course closed. Any participant who requires longer on course will be directed to the sidewalk and will be considered a post-race participant, not appearing in the official finisher results.
