The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Houston 2026, Aaron Villa crossed the line in 1:20:55: 279th of 1,243 men, faster than 78% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 3:20 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 5:07 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 8:44 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Phoenix 2026 were 1:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
