The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Katowice 2026, Lycrecia Rea crossed the line in 1:27:07: 187th of 486 women, faster than 62% of the field.
A remarkably even set of stations, none more than 0:14 from the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:39 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Katowice gave the field time back: about 1:15 faster than the average race this season, by 293 athletes who raced both. 5:28 slower than at London Excel 2025, the previous Open race.
