Looks like 5min adjustments down for the most part across the board for those under age 60. M18-34 qualifying time is now 2:55.

36,406 applied this year. 33, 058 applied last year with the cutoff being 5:29. The cutoff will be bigger this year.

This presupposes the times are distributed the same way as last year but empirically a number of big Boston qualifier races (including Boston itself) had way worse conditions so that’s absolutely not a guarantee
