The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Taipei 2026, Frederic Carron crossed the line in 1:35:37: 409th of 852 men, faster than 52% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:33 on the median. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:33. A harder second half: 3:14 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Taipei 2026 and Hong Kong 2025 were 6:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
