The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Simon Joonnekin won the Open division at Lyon 2026 in 58:53, first of 495 men.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:27 quicker than the median and 5th of 495. Stronger after halfway: 2:08 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:56, was faster than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Paris 2025 were 5:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
