The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Fabien Varrel finished 300th of 698 men in the Open division at Lyon 2026, in 1:22:55, faster than 57% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 65% of the field across all eight, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:25 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:54 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 4:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
