Nick Arciniaga Has High Hopes for 2015 Boston Marathon

Published by Competitor on April 1, 2015

Everyone remembers which American crossed the finish line first at the 2014 Boston Marathon. But 3 minutes behind Meb Keflezighi came the second American finisher—Nick Arciniaga of Flagstaff, Ariz.

Arciniaga had a strong race of his own that day, finishing seventh overall. After hearing about Meb’s victory in the finishing chute from pro runner Sara Hall (who was waiting for her husband, Ryan Hall, to come in), Arciniaga stuck around to congratulate Jeffrey Eggleston (who finished just 10 seconds behind him) before leaving the finishing area.

Arciniaga was in a good mood—he was “so pumped” for Meb, but he was also very pleased with how his own race went.

Pleased—but not completely satisfied.

“It was one of the best performances I could’ve done that day,” he says, “but I probably could’ve run faster had I done a little better in training.”
