The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sean Lancaster finished 590th of 1,005 men in the Open division at Houston 2025, in 1:34:42.
Legs and stations told different stories: 55% of the field beaten on the runs, 31% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:17 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:01 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2025 and Houston 2024 were 2:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
