The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Gainful Anaheim 2024, Mary Obaka crossed the line in 1:20:18: 53rd of 367 women, faster than 86% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 92% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 68% on the stations. A harder second half: 1:58 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 6:28, was faster than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Gainful Anaheim 2024 and Anaheim 2023 were 2:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
