The race, in three figures
The race, in words
59:23 at London Excel 2025 put Paul O Brien on the age-group podium: 2nd of 58 in the 40–44 age group.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:54 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:23 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 8:15, ahead of 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Dublin 2025 were 1:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
