A station race more than a running one: 66% of the field beaten on the stations, against 42% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:30 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:39 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Shanghai gave the field time back: about 2:15 faster than the average race this season, by 468 athletes who raced both.
