The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ryan Gutierrez finished 980th of 1,243 men in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 1:50:27.
A station race more than a running one: 41% of the field beaten on the stations, against 13% on the runs. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:27. A harder second half: 7:44 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Dallas 2025 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
