The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Toronto 2026, Umesh Hira crossed the line in 1:20:00: 228th of 1,135 men, faster than 80% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:27 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:41 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Toronto 2026 and Ottawa 2026 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
