The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Houston 2026, Ryan De Priest crossed the line in 1:27:13: 446th of 1,243 men, faster than 64% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:07 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:00 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Chicago 2025 were 3:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
