The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Utsav Panchal finished 248th of 1,806 men in the Open division at Bengaluru 2026, in 1:34:40, faster than 86% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 2:13 quicker than the median and 180th of 1,806. If there was time left out there, it was on the farmers carry, 0:39 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:35 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Bengaluru 2026 and Mumbai 2025 were 4:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
