The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at New York 2026, Christopher Sarambo crossed the line in 1:22:57: 106th of 392 men, faster than 73% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 86% of the field across all eight, against 59% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:56 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:26 better against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
