The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Aaron Massie finished 735th of 1,079 men in the Open division at Tampa 2026, in 1:39:16.
A station race more than a running one: 57% of the field beaten on the stations, against 21% on the runs. The sled push was the standout, 1:15 quicker than the median and 6th of 1,079. A harder second half: 5:50 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Tampa gave the field time back: about 1:00 faster than the average race this season, by 565 athletes who raced both.
