The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at New York 2026, Maxine Ortega crossed the line in 1:37:54: 243rd of 586 women, faster than 59% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 70% of the field beaten on the stations, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:07 on the median. A harder second half: 1:45 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both New York 2026 and Anaheim 2025 were 3:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
