The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Cynthia Garcia finished 375th of 961 women in the Open division at Houston 2026, in 1:38:33, faster than 61% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 78% of the field beaten on the runs, 51% on the stations. On the sled pull the field had the edge, by 1:13. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:59 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.
