Question

Need help with the expression.
One time, more recently, we were well into the second third of the race ...

What does it mean by" well into the second third of "?

Answer

"Well into" means a large proportion of something has been done.

The second third of the race is the middle section, when the race is being considered as three parts.

So "well into the second third" means somewhere approaching the final third of the race.
