The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Wilson finished 953rd of 1,079 men in the Open division at Tampa 2026, in 1:57:49.
Legs and stations told different stories: 35% of the field beaten on the runs, 5% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 10:43 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 7:45 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Tampa gave the field time back: about 1:00 faster than the average race this season, by 565 athletes who raced both. That was 6:53 off the time at Washington DC 2026.
