The race, in words

A station race more than a running one: 71% of the field beaten on the stations, against 23% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:48 quicker than the median and 219th of 1,403. The race faded late: the second half went 3:20 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Delhi cost the whole field time: about 1:56 more than the average race this season, going by 620 athletes who raced both.
