The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Washington DC 2026, Chris A. Williams crossed the line in 1:19:02: 321st of 1,462 men, faster than 78% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 88% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 57% on the stations. Stronger after halfway: 1:05 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:58, was faster than 90% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Washington DC 2026 and New York 2026 were 3:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
