The race, in words
Sarah Chavez finished 407th of 648 women in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 1:51:47.
A station race more than a running one: 71% of the field beaten on the stations, against 27% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 5:25 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:52 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Houston ran fast: the 654 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:02 quicker here than at their other races.
