The race, in words
Nolan Marcus finished 333rd of 634 men in the Pro division at Phoenix 2026, in 1:20:08.
A station race more than a running one: 58% of the field beaten on the stations, against 37% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled push: 0:57 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:10 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Phoenix gave the field time back: about 0:46 faster than the average race this season, by 372 athletes who raced both.
