The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:25:35 at Incheon 2026 put Dale Samuels 509th of 1,100 men in the Open division, ahead of 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 66% of the field beaten on the stations, against 42% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:03 quicker than the median and 195th of 1,100. The race faded late: the second half went 1:54 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Incheon 2026 and Seoul 2025 were 1:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
