The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Shenzhen 2026, 志斌 陈 crossed the line in 1:31:03: 520th of 1,284 men, faster than 60% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 78% of the field beaten on the stations, against 39% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:26 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:02 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Shenzhen gained about 3:13.
