The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Bannon took 2nd of 22 in the 50–54 age group at Bangkok 2025, in 1:23:33.
Legs and stations told different stories: 94% of the field beaten on the runs, 49% on the stations. The race faded late: the second half went 2:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:23, ahead of 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Bangkok 2025 and Hong Kong 2024 were 3:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
