The race, in three figures
The race, in words
3:20:25 at Ottawa 2026 put Gary Vartanian 865th of 866 men in the Open division.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 18:11. A harder second half: 13:54 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 13:43, behind 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Ottawa 2026 and Las Vegas 2026 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
