The race, in words
Ashley Almeda finished 479th of 556 women in the Open division at Ottawa 2026, in 2:04:26.
A station race more than a running one: 36% of the field beaten on the stations, against 6% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:06 slower than the median. A harder second half: 5:45 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Ottawa gave the field time back: about 1:24 faster than the average race this season, by 516 athletes who raced both.
