The 125th Boston Marathon: Live updates, results.
The first time Ben Beach ran the Boston Marathon, he was only 18.
This time, he’s 72.
Beach, the Bethesda, Md., man who is the race’s ironman, is one of only 104 people to have run the race at least 25 consecutive times, a streak that has reached 53 — and one that he hopes to extend to 54 on Monday.
The Boston Athletic Association has, since 2017, recognized the streaks of only those runners who completed the race before the official cutoff of six hours.

One of only 11 people with active streaks that have reached at least 40, Beach finished in 6:05:35 in 2019, the most recent year the race was held in person.
His time qualified because the six hours is measured from the time the last official starter in the final wave crosses the starting line.
That adds about an extra 30 minutes.
In 2002, Beach was diagnosed with task-specific dystonia, a rare neurological disorder that causes his left leg to gyrate awkwardly, with the lower leg extended sideways and nearly parallel to the ground with each stride.
