The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Eric Wong finished 193rd of 687 men in the Open division at Taipei 2025, in 1:27:47, faster than 72% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 77% of the field beaten on the runs, 55% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:04. A harder second half: 2:35 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
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.
