The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Melvin Goh finished 623rd of 1,284 men in the Open division at Shenzhen 2026, in 1:35:12, faster than 52% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 66% of the field beaten on the stations, against 38% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:31 quicker than the median and 376th of 1,284. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:49 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Shenzhen 2026 and Shanghai 2025 were 4:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
