The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rajesh Kumar S took 3rd of 25 in the 40–44 age group at Delhi 2026, in 1:35:15.
The stations carried this race: faster than 82% of the field across all eight, against 60% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:36 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:55 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Delhi 2026 and Bengaluru 2026 were 4:01 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
