The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sophie Dennison finished 1,003rd of 1,542 women in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:35:56.
The stations carried this race: faster than 51% of the field across all eight, against 22% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 0:36 quicker than the median and 444th of 1,542. A harder second half: 2:04 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
