At the time Boston Marathon 2013 was suspended,
17,580 runners had finished, 4,496 runners had reached 24.8 miles and hundreds more may still have been on the course.
- Of the 17,580 finishers, according to MarathonGuide.com, 10,391 runners, or 59.1%, qualified for Boston 2014
- In 2010, the percent of Boston finishers that re-qualified for the 2011 race was 41%
- But . . . qualifying times in 2013 are 5 minutes faster than they were in 2010, and yet percent re-qualifiers are almost identical
- Further proof that the new 5-minutes-faster qualifying times translate into a field that also runs at least 5 minutes faster in Boston

| Note: we do not have the breakout of qualifying results for age groups 0-34 and 35-39, which are combined above as 0-39 |
