The race, in three figures
The race, in words
William Solomon finished 609th of 895 men in the Open division at New York 2024, in 1:38:08.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 23% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:29 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced New York gained about 1:39. That was 3:45 off the time at Los Angeles 2022.
