The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Nick Marcelle finished 278th of 342 men in the Open division at Hong Kong 2023, in 1:50:50.
Legs and stations told different stories: 40% of the field beaten on the runs, 14% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:41. The race faded late: the second half went 1:41 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Hong Kong 2023 and Singapore 2023 were 9:22 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
