The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Shanghai 2025, Fong Ting Jeffrey Chau & Yuncheng Chen crossed the line in 1:14:52: 115th of 388 men's teams, faster than 70% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 82% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:46 on the median. A harder second half: 1:46 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 Shanghai gained about 2:11.
