The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michelle Brecker finished 337th of 386 women in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 2:13:41.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 5:22 slower than the median. A harder second half: 5:21 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Dallas 2025 were 3:05 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
