The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Marcus Lee at Shenzhen 2026: 1:15:43, 128th of 1,284 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:33 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:53 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Shenzhen 2026 and Hong Kong 2026 were 2:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
