The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Diane Elder finished 372nd of 550 women in the Open division at Phoenix 2026, in 1:43:19.
Legs and stations told different stories: 55% of the field beaten on the runs, 17% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 6:42 behind the median. A harder second half: 10:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Phoenix 2026 and Dallas 2025 were 3:53 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
