The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Joel Kho finished 346th of 687 men in the Open division at Taipei 2025, in 1:39:40.
Legs and stations told different stories: 58% of the field beaten on the runs, 32% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 5:52 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:16 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Taipei ran slow: the 375 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:48 slower here than at their other races.
