The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Salt Lake City 2026, Richard Beecher crossed the line in 1:24:26: 260th of 973 men, faster than 73% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 83% of the field beaten on the stations, against 58% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:54 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:21 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Salt Lake City ran slow: the 406 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:43 slower here than at their other races.
