The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Delhi 2026, Vandana Thakur crossed the line in 2:12:17: 285th of 604 women, faster than 53% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 63% of the field beaten on the stations, against 40% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:56 quicker than the median and 94th of 604. The race faded late: the second half went 3:42 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a slow day in Delhi. Measured against their other races this season, the people who raced here lost about 3:38.
