The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Houston 2026, Lars Finanger crossed the line in 1:12:07: 81st of 353 men, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 96% of the field beaten on the runs, 56% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 4:36 slower than the median. A harder second half: 6:31 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Dallas 2024 were 5:40 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
