The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:17:52 at Ottawa 2026 put Rami Nessim 50th of 281 men in the Open division, ahead of 82% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 89% of the field beaten on the runs, 69% on the stations. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:47 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:51, was faster than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Ottawa 2026 and Houston 2026 were 1:41 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
