The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jennifer Bledsoe finished 707th of 1,029 women in the Open division at Washington DC 2026, in 1:52:30.
A station race more than a running one: 43% of the field beaten on the stations, against 23% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:30 behind the median. A harder second half: 5:56 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Washington DC gave the field time back: about 2:22 faster than the average race this season, by 719 athletes who raced both.
