The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Melvyn CHUA finished 567th of 702 men in the Open division at Seoul 2025, in 1:40:22.
A station race more than a running one: 34% of the field beaten on the stations, against 11% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:08 behind the median.
Seoul gave the field time back: about 3:09 faster than the average race this season, by 375 athletes who raced both. 20:47 faster than at Singapore National Stadium 2024, the previous Open race.
