The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:59 at Chicago 2021 put Robert Thomas 21st of 40 men in the Pro division.
The stations carried this race: faster than 71% of the field across all eight, against 17% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:17 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 6:56 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Chicago 2021 and Chicago 2020 were 1:40 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
