The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jonathan Powell finished 416th of 897 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:23:52, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 73% of the field beaten on the stations, against 35% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:14 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:05 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
London Olympia ran fast: the 1,564 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:53 quicker here than at their other races.
