The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Thomas Owen crossed the line in 1:11:54: 563rd of 2,779 men, faster than 80% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 94% of the field across all eight, against 55% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:48 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:21 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
