The race, in three figures
The race, in words
相 陈 finished 639th of 665 men in the Open division at Beijing 2026, in 2:22:54.
A station race more than a running one: 36% of the field beaten on the stations, against 2% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 4:11 behind the median. A harder second half: 13:20 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Beijing gave the field time back: about 2:56 faster than the average race this season, by 546 athletes who raced both.
