The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Salt Lake City 2026, David Ford crossed the line in 1:27:21: 318th of 973 men, faster than 67% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 80% of the field across all eight, against 55% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:03 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:48 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Salt Lake City 2026 and Anaheim 2024 were 4:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
