The race, in words

A station race more than a running one: 68% of the field beaten on the stations, against 33% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:51 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:58 better against the middle of the field than the first.
London Excel ran fast: the 3,460 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:33 quicker here than at their other races.
