The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:14:16 at Ottawa 2026 put Par Nijhawan 263rd of 281 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 7:10 slower than the median. A harder second half: 9:19 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Ottawa 2026 and Toronto 2025 were 5:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
