The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Naoki KAYAMOTO finished 170th of 299 men in the Open division at Chiba 2026, in 1:34:57.
The stations carried this race: faster than 56% of the field across all eight, against 30% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:05 on the median. A harder second half: 4:47 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Chiba 2026 and Osaka 2026 were 2:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
