The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Katowice 2026, Gary Wilson crossed the line in 1:22:12: 372nd of 859 men, faster than 57% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 76% of the field across all eight, against 49% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:46 quicker than the median and 23rd of 859. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:25 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Katowice 2026 and Stockholm 2025 were 3:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
