The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Shane O'Shaughnessy crossed the line in 1:10:39: 473rd of 2,779 men, faster than 83% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 90% of the field beaten on the stations, against 68% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:03 ahead of the median.
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.
