The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Axel Bayoud at Lyon 2026: 1:06:57, 83rd of 1,513 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:13 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:00 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 5:59, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Bordeaux 2025 were 2:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
