The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Katie Jacyna finished 439th of 550 women in the Open division at Phoenix 2026, in 1:51:45.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:10 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:01 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Phoenix gave the field time back: about 1:35 faster than the average race this season, by 551 athletes who raced both. That was 13:06 off the time at Chicago 2025.
