The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Natalie Kronick finished 262nd of 299 women in the Open division at Chicago 2023, in 1:54:42.
Legs and stations told different stories: 40% of the field beaten on the runs, 4% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 5:21 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:00 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 Chicago gained about 2:32.
