The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Lyon 2026, Benjamin Marlot crossed the line in 1:21:54: 313th of 735 men, faster than 57% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 69% of the field across all eight, against 45% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:04 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:53 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Geneva 2025 were 3:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
