The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Jack Smith crossed the line in 1:15:23: 750th of 2,771 men, faster than 73% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 82% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 57% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 2:26 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:51 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and London 2025 were 1:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
