The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Lyon 2026, Quentin FRANCESCH crossed the line in 1:12:59: 112th of 698 men, faster than 84% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:49 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:06 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Paris 2025 were 5:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
