The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Martin Blessing finished 534th of 1,397 men in the Open division at Paris 2025, in 1:22:09, faster than 62% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 85% of the field beaten on the runs, 36% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:55. A harder second half: 3:11 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Paris 2025 and Toulouse 2025 were 2:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
