The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Damodar Verlekar finished in the top 10% of the field at Delhi 2026, in 1:23:42 for 77th of 1,403 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 3:35 quicker than the median and 150th of 1,403. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:38 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 6:45, ahead of 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Delhi 2026 and Bengaluru 2026 were 3:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
