The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:59:05 at Washington DC 2026 put Christopher Brooks 528th of 626 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 55% of the field beaten on the stations, against 4% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:08. The race faded late: the second half went 5:27 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Washington DC gave the field time back: about 1:55 faster than the average race this season, by 894 athletes who raced both. That was 1:16 off the time at Chicago Navy Pier 2024.
