The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:23:44 at Ottawa 2026 put Dmytro Kovtsun & Vlad Stets 320th of 455 men's teams in the Doubles Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 56% of the field beaten on the stations, against 23% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:18 of the median. A harder second half: 4:52 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Ottawa ran slow: the 325 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:28 slower here than at their other races.
