The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Washington DC 2026, Glenn Sapsford crossed the line in 1:20:57: 365th of 1,462 men, faster than 75% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 80% of the field beaten on the runs, 59% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:02 on the median. Quick through the roxzone: 5:59, ahead of 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.
