The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jean Delchambre finished 1,221st of 1,442 men in the Open division at Bordeaux 2025, in 1:39:33.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 4% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:12 behind the median. A harder second half: 7:10 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Bordeaux gave the field time back: about 0:56 faster than the average race this season, by 1,721 athletes who raced both.
