The race, in words
In the Open division at Beijing I 2026, 兴森 李 crossed the line in 1:34:25: 547th of 1,267 men, faster than 57% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 70% of the field beaten on the runs, 44% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:30 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:28 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Beijing I ran fast: the 564 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:09 quicker here than at their other races.
