The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:52 at Ottawa 2026 put Francois Binette 621st of 866 men in the Open division.
The stations carried this race: faster than 46% of the field across all eight, against 22% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 1:23 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:23 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Ottawa 2026 and Toronto 2025 were 5:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
