The race, in words
SHAO HUNG LU finished 489th of 852 men in the Open division at Taipei 2026, in 1:40:27.
A station race more than a running one: 55% of the field beaten on the stations, against 27% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:12 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:24 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Taipei gained about 2:43.
