The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Naoki Takahashi finished in the top 10% of the field at Singapore 2026, in 1:14:21 for 46th of 1,183 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 2:48 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:09 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:54, ahead of 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Singapore 2026 and Taipei 2026 were 2:46 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
