The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Eric Ko finished 672nd of 1,490 men in the Open division at Hong Kong 2026, in 1:34:41, faster than 55% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 47% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:45 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:04 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hong Kong 2026 and Hong Kong 2025 were 6:15 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
