The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at New York 2026, Vineet Virmani crossed the line in 1:29:40: 173rd of 392 men, faster than 56% of the field.
The farmers carry was the standout, 0:31 quicker than the median and 51st of 392. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:49 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 4:45 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both New York 2026 and Ottawa 2026 were 3:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
