The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:52 at Lyon 2026 put Julien Marchand 472nd of 735 men in the Open division.
The stations carried this race: faster than 64% of the field across all eight, against 19% on the runs. The sled push was where this race was made, 0:46 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
