The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:44:23 at Monterrey 2026 put Héctor Vela 254th of 353 men in the Pro division.
A station race more than a running one: 52% of the field beaten on the stations, against 13% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:45 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:20 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Monterrey ran slow: the 135 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:12 slower here than at their other races. 7:01 slower than at Monterrey 2025, the previous Pro race.
