The race, in words
In the Open division at Shenzhen 2026, Chi Yan Choi crossed the line in 1:30:53: 512th of 1,284 men, faster than 60% of the field.
The sled push was the standout, 0:54 quicker than the median and 96th of 1,284. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:44 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:12 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Shenzhen gained about 3:13.
