The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:17:44 at Houston 2026 put Manik DeSilva 1,177th of 1,243 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 7:40. A harder second half: 17:27 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 15:17, behind 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Houston 2025 were 5:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
