The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ward Platt won the 60–64 age group at Hong Kong 2026 in 1:21:02, first of 16.
A station race more than a running one: 94% of the field beaten on the stations, against 62% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 4:17 quicker than the median and 47th of 1,490. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:29 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hong Kong 2026 and Hong Kong 2024 were 5:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
