Progress against the field
Barry Lyons has gained 50:36 on the field from Houston 2024 to Houston 2025.
The clock says 52:32 faster, but the races themselves got 1:56 quicker for everyone.
252 days between Houston 2024 and Dallas 2024 is the longest gap compared here, and the second race was 45:34 better than the field.
How this is worked out ⓘ
A finish time moves for two reasons: the athlete, and the race — its course, its floor, its day. For each pair of races in a row in one category, we take everyone who raced both and use the middle of how much they moved (the median) as "the race". Whatever is left is the athlete. Doubles are compared only when the same two people raced both, and told as the pair's; relays are left out. A pair with fewer than 15 athletes in common is not shown.
