The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Andrew Oliver finished 500th of 897 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:27:40.
A station race more than a running one: 68% of the field beaten on the stations, against 31% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 1:31 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:39 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.
