The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Mooney finished 288th of 866 men in the Open division at Ottawa 2026, in 1:22:34, faster than 67% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 78% of the field beaten on the runs, 54% on the stations. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:19 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:29 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.
