The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Paul Gougis finished 1,184th of 1,513 men in the Open division at Lyon 2026, in 1:36:35.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:22 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:14 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.
