The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Crystal Samuel finished 209th of 299 women in the Open division at Toronto 2026, in 1:49:43.
The stations carried this race: faster than 44% of the field across all eight, against 19% on the runs. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:42. The race faded late: the second half went 1:54 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Toronto 2026 and Toronto 2025 were 5:13 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
