The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mael Duverger finished 588th of 735 men in the Open division at Lyon 2026, in 1:37:25.
A station race more than a running one: 33% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:22 behind the median. A harder second half: 6:00 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Marseille 2024 were 2:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
