The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:03:24 at Rome 2026 put Gaetan Blas on the age-group podium: 3rd of 74 in the 35–39 age group.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:52 quicker than the median and 6th of 362. The race faded late: the second half went 2:23 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:22, was faster than 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Athens 2026 were 3:09 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
