The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Delhi 2026, Somendra Singh crossed the line in 1:32:12: 109th of 609 men, faster than 82% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 92% of the field beaten on the stations, against 67% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 4:46 quicker than the median and 1st of 609. A harder second half: 1:17 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Delhi ran slow: the 620 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:56 slower here than at their other races.
