The race, in words
1:21:53 at Taipei 2025 put Rebecca Thompson & Sean Plunkett 73rd of 282 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division, ahead of 74% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 55% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:03. A harder second half: 5:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Taipei ran slow: the 133 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:55 slower here than at their other races.
