The race, in words
Matthew O Neill finished 697th of 897 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:39:17.
A station race more than a running one: 35% of the field beaten on the stations, against 14% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:07 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:18 better against the middle of the field than the first.
The field ran 2:22 faster at London Olympia 2026 than at Dublin 2025, a quicker course than most.
