The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Talaepa finished 909th of 1,386 men in the Open division at Geneva 2025, in 1:29:30.
The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:35 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:10 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 1:09 slower at Geneva 2025 than at London 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
