The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:12:44 at London Excel 2025 put Simon Donnellan 626th of 2,779 men in the Open division, ahead of 78% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 86% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 66% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:01 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:55 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.
