The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Marseille 2024, Fabien Fernandez crossed the line in 1:17:16: 501st of 1,477 men, faster than 66% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 76% of the field beaten on the runs, 49% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:31 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:23 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Marseille ran fast: the 895 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:30 quicker here than at their other races. 7:14 slower than at Poznan 2024, the previous Open race.
