The race, in words
Heather Miller finished 461st of 648 women in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 1:58:28.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 18% on the runs. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:25. The race faded late: the second half went 9:37 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Houston gave the field time back: about 1:02 faster than the average race this season, by 654 athletes who raced both.
