The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:50:19 at Geneva 2025 put Raphael Bach 1,294th of 1,386 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 38% of the field beaten on the stations, against 1% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 1:57 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Geneva ran fast: the 823 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:48 quicker here than at their other races.
