The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Warsaw 2026, John O'Reilly crossed the line in 1:14:59: 164th of 555 men, faster than 71% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 75% of the field beaten on the runs, 55% on the stations. A harder second half: 1:30 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 3:59, ahead of 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Warsaw 2026 and EMEA London Olympia 2026 were 1:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
