The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Gonçalo Lourenço crossed the line in 1:19:23: 1,052nd of 2,771 men, faster than 62% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 71% of the field beaten on the stations, against 48% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:02 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:53 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Rome 2025 were 2:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
