The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Beijing 2026, 飞 薛 crossed the line in 1:30:12: 253rd of 665 men, faster than 62% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 66% of the field beaten on the runs, 44% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:03 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Beijing 2026 and Hangzhou 2026 were 6:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
