The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:21:26 at Houston 2026 put Brandon Kirby 76th of 335 men in the Open division, ahead of 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 93% of the field beaten on the runs, 42% on the stations. The sled pull cost the most time: 2:27 slower than the median. Time in the roxzone, 5:37, was faster than 91% 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.
