The race, in words
Maria Polanco finished 221st of 406 women in the Open division at Tampa 2026, in 1:39:50.
A station race more than a running one: 60% of the field beaten on the stations, against 31% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:18 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 6:11 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Tampa ran fast: the 513 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:40 quicker here than at their other races.
