In a two-man NB25-29 field on a cool, overcast San Francisco morning, Julian Felix made no mistake. The 27-year-old from Oakland crossed in 30:31, averaging 9:49 per mile to claim the win with authority.

Jr Derenoncourt, the 25-year-old local from San Francisco, brought the hometown presence but couldn't close the gap, finishing in 38:03 at a 12:15/mi pace. The 7:32 margin between first and second tells the story of a race that was never truly in doubt — Felix ran the steadier, faster effort from the gun and never looked back.
