The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Simon Marrocco crossed the line in 1:22:37: 1,317th of 2,771 men, faster than 53% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 63% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 43% on the stations. The sled pull cost the most time: 1:27 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:33 better against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
