The race, in words

A station race more than a running one: 89% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. The race faded late: the second half went 1:44 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 7:10, was faster than 85% of the field.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Beijing gained about 3:20.
