The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:29:19 at Chicago 2025 put Paul Franks 722nd of 1,621 men in the Open division, ahead of 56% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 1:04 quicker than the median and 244th of 1,621. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:20. A harder second half: 2:21 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Chicago 2025 and Toronto 2025 were 3:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
