The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Lyon 2026, Tom Ghesquiers crossed the line in 1:16:59: 289th of 800 men, faster than 64% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 73% of the field beaten on the stations, against 49% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 2:23 on the median. A harder second half: 2:30 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Lyon ran slow: the 384 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:35 slower here than at their other races.
