The race, in words

Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:41 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:36 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:40 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
London Olympia gave the field time back: about 0:53 faster than the average race this season, by 1,564 athletes who raced both.
