The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Aaron Lack finished 110th of 616 men in the Open division at Phoenix 2026, in 1:16:53, faster than 82% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 95% of the field beaten on the runs, 63% on the stations. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:52 quicker than the median and 155th of 616. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:34 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Phoenix 2026 and Anaheim 2025 were 4:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
