The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jason Yu finished 207th of 404 men in the Open division at Los Angeles 2023, in 1:29:32.
A station race more than a running one: 77% of the field beaten on the stations, against 32% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:49 behind the median. A harder second half: 14:25 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Los Angeles gave the field time back: about 1:52 faster than the average race this season, by 239 athletes who raced both.
