The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:19 at Taipei 2026 put Terence Cheng 451st of 852 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 62% of the field beaten on the stations, against 34% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:37 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 4:28 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Taipei ran fast: the 437 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:43 quicker here than at their other races.
