The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:26:56 at Washington DC 2026 put Michael Alexander on the age-group podium: 2nd of 13 in the 55–59 age group.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:03 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:12. Stronger after halfway: 1:16 better against the middle of the field than before it.
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.
