The race, in words
Chun Seng Lam finished 950th of 1,119 men in the Open division at Osaka 2026, in 1:54:16.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:42 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:52 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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. 7:47 slower than at Seoul 2025, the previous Open race.
