The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Toulouse 2026, Thibaut Meyer crossed the line in 1:09:48: 243rd of 1,849 men, faster than 87% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 93% of the field beaten on the runs, 69% on the stations. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:59 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:19, ahead of 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Toulouse 2026 and Paris 1 2025 were 4:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
