The race, in words
Valentin Darthout finished in the top 10% of the field at Lyon 2026, in 59:25 for 7th of 800 men in the Pro division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 3:18 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:30 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:46, ahead of 98% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Paris GP 2026 were 1:36 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
