The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jean-Marie Blattner won the 50–54 age group at Lyon 2026 in 1:04:21, first of 26.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 3:09 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:48 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:30, ahead of 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Geneva 2025 were 3:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
