The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Kapil Bhatia finished 1,072nd of 1,403 men in the Open division at Delhi 2026, in 2:17:46.
The runs carried this race: faster than 36% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 15% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 5:03. The race faded late: the second half went 10:36 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Delhi 2026 and Delhi 2025 were 7:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
