The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:21 at Houston 2026 put Matthew Smith 772nd of 1,243 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 46% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:37 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:11 behind the median.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Las Vegas 2026 were 2:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
