The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:43:32 at Phoenix 2026 put Chet Kowalski 736th of 947 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 36% of the field beaten on the runs, 10% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 4:38 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:04 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Phoenix 2026 and Dallas 2025 were 2:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
