Bor took advantage of the shift, chasing down Sisson on “The Green Monster” and finishing in 43:11 for his first River Run title -- which came with a $17,000 payday, thanks to the Equalizer Bonus. Sisson finished in 48:26, the slowest of her three consecutive River Run titles and the eighth fastest time in race history for the women. She said the weather was definitely a factor for her as far as her time.
“I’ve been training in Flagstaff, Arizona, where we just got another 2 feet of snow a couple days ago so I’m not used to this heat, but I grew up in humidity so I just remind myself that anytime I race within it that I’m familiar enough with it, but it was hard today,” Sisson said. “It was a grind.” Sisson is just the second woman in the 46-year history of the race to win three in a row. Deena Kastor won four in a row from 2000-2003.
