The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Paris 1 2025, Jianhao Shen crossed the line in 1:19:42: 610th of 1,422 men, faster than 57% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 68% of the field beaten on the runs, 43% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:58 quicker than the median and 48th of 1,422. The race faded late: the second half went 1:57 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Paris 1 2025 and Paris 2024 were 7:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
