The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Joseph Datar finished 228th of 653 men in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 1:27:50, faster than 65% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 5:57 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:29 better against the middle of the field than the first. 14:19 in the roxzone was slower than 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Chicago 2025 were 3:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
