The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Las Vegas 2026, Shane Brownfield crossed the line in 1:18:15: 275th of 1,739 men, faster than 84% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:27 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:34 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Las Vegas 2026 and Chicago 2025 were 4:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
