The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matt Minett finished 50th of 392 men in the Open division at New York 2026, in 1:17:08, faster than 87% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 93% of the field beaten on the runs, 72% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:05 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:05 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both New York 2026 and Chicago 2025 were 4:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
