The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Fergus O'Connor finished in the top 10% of the field at London Excel 2025, in 1:08:42 for 292nd of 2,771 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:09 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:46 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 9:18, was faster than 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Birmingham 2025 were 3:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
