The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Jacob Galgay at Houston 2026: 1:13:26, 115th of 1,243 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:11 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:03 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Boston 2025 were 2:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
