The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Brian Koo finished 432nd of 687 men in the Open division at Taipei 2025, in 1:47:39.
The runs carried this race: faster than 64% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 12% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 7:11. A harder second half: 7:23 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.
