The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jacques Du Plessis finished 945th of 1,135 men in the Open division at Toronto 2026, in 1:56:25.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:43 on the median. On the sled push the field had the edge, by 5:09. Paced to finish: the second half went 5:08 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Toronto 2026 and Toronto 2024 were 4:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
