The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Riga 2025, Benny Bonner crossed the line in 1:15:37: 120th of 440 men, faster than 73% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 90% of the field beaten on the runs, 44% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:05. The race faded late: the second half went 2:43 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Riga 2025 and Dublin 2024 were 2:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
