The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Takashi Shimizu took 2nd of 68 in the 45–49 age group at Chiba 2026, in 1:10:58.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:32 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:44 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:54, ahead of 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Chiba 2026 and Osaka 2026 were 2:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
