The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Lyon 2026, Pierre Thomas crossed the line in 1:15:35: 352nd of 1,513 men, faster than 77% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:19 quicker than the median and 225th of 1,513. The farmers carry cost the most time: 0:32 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:42 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Lyon 2026 and Bordeaux 2025 were 2:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
