The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Harper finished 245th of 354 men in the Open division at Chicago - North American Open Championship 2023, in 1:39:30.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 19% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:49 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:18 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Chicago - North American Open Championship 2023 and Chicago 2022 were 4:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
