The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:08:17 won the Open division at Houston 2026 for Marta Benjamin, first of 386 women.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:21 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:25 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:58, was faster than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Dallas 2025 were 3:05 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
