The race, in three figures
The race, in words
59:44 won the Open division at Taipei 2026 for Oliver Marks, first of 852 men.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 3:12 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:21 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:10, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Taipei 2026 and Shenzhen 2025 were 4:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
