The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:27:47 at Katowice 2026 put Ross Elliott 501st of 859 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 77% of the field beaten on the runs, 13% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 6:58 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 6:52 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Katowice gained about 1:43. That was 8:33 off the time at London Excel 2025.
