The race, in three figures
The race, in words
John Lam finished 243rd of 1,284 men in the Open division at Shenzhen 2026, in 1:20:22, faster than 81% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:01 quicker than the median and 290th of 1,284. The farmers carry cost the most time: 0:36 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:39 better against the middle of the field 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.
