The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Daniel Montesino Jones & Piers James Gopsill finished 62nd of 302 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Taipei 2025, in 1:15:21, faster than 80% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 90% of the field beaten on the stations, against 67% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:38 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:29 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Taipei ran slow: the 170 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 4:40 slower here than at their other races.
