The race, in three figures
The race, in words
NAMIKO HONDO took 2nd of 26 in the 55–59 age group at Chiba 2026, in 1:26:53.
The runs carried this race: faster than 88% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 54% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 2:55 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:51 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Chiba 2026 and Yokohama 2025 were 3:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
