The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Steve Wagner finished 297th of 392 men in the Open division at New York 2026, in 1:48:56.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 5:00 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 10:22, behind 90% of the field.
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.
