The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Kim Poh Chan finished 509th of 687 men in the Open division at Taipei 2025, in 1:56:08.
A station race more than a running one: 56% of the field beaten on the stations, against 14% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:07 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 14:12 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.
