The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Houston 2026, Tricia Smith crossed the line in 1:35:39: 328th of 961 women, faster than 66% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 88% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 42% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 2:10 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:27 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2026 and Houston 2025 were 2:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
