The qualifying times for the 2023 race are the same as the women’s times. But nonbinary standards are likely to change in coming years.
explains the change and admits that the organization is still learning.
“With this being our first year, we do not yet have enough data to establish nonbinary qualifying times,” the BAA website reads. “Therefore, we will use the women’s qualifying standard times listed here, as they are inclusive of the qualifying times for the two existing divisions. As we prepare for future races, participants can expect nonbinary times to be updated accordingly. We view this first year as an opportunity to learn and grow together.
“Discussions are ongoing with nonbinary athletes in an effort to further promote inclusion at all BAA events.” For all athletes, regardless of gender, registration is no guarantee of acceptance into the 2023 Boston Marathon. Traditionally, athletes have to have run faster than their qualifying times to gain entry to the marathon, although the much-anticipated “cutoff” has swung wildly in recent years.
