The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Taipei 2025, Promise Au crossed the line in 1:25:40: 173rd of 687 men, faster than 75% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 93% of the field across all eight, against 50% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:19 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Taipei 2025 and Hong Kong 2024 were 2:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
