The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mathis Verdier finished 1,101st of 1,431 men in the Open division at Bordeaux 2025, in 1:31:38.
A station race more than a running one: 40% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:10 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:01 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 Bordeaux gained about 0:56.
