Clark's total running time was 00:40:36, which is notably 00:08 faster than the average, highlighting his proficiency in running. However, the data suggests that he started the race too fast, with an exceptional Running 1 time of 00:02:57, significantly quicker than the average by 01:22. This pace was not sustained throughout the race, as indicated by slower times in later running segments, particularly Running 6 and 7. Overall, Clark exhibits a more hybrid profile with a slight leaning towards running but needs to balance his strength-based exercises to maintain consistent performance.
