The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:40:57 at Osaka 2026 put Michael Lynch 734th of 1,119 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 46% of the field beaten on the stations, against 24% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:50 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:51 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Osaka gave the field time back: about 1:20 faster than the average race this season, by 777 athletes who raced both. 23:44 slower than at London Excel 2025, the previous Open race.
