The race, in words
文棋 王 finished 651st of 852 men in the Open division at Taipei 2026, in 1:52:42.
Legs and stations told different stories: 40% of the field beaten on the runs, 12% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 6:59 slower than the median. A harder second half: 11:33 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.
