The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Koerner finished 163rd of 228 men in the Pro division at Acapulco 2026, in 1:43:38.
A station race more than a running one: 39% of the field beaten on the stations, against 18% on the runs. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:55 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:18 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Acapulco ran slow: the 117 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 4:36 slower here than at their other races. 10:45 slower than at Phoenix 2026, the previous Pro race.
