The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Bangkok 1 2026, John Hesse crossed the line in 1:25:26: 103rd of 429 men, faster than 76% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 87% of the field beaten on the runs, 56% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 2:23 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:31 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
That was 9:57 off the time at Dublin 2025.
