The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:42:32 at Lyon 2026 put Armand Shams 1,318th of 1,513 men in the Open division.
The wall balls cost the most time: 3:20 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:57 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 10:19, behind 89% 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.
