The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Hicham Messaoudi finished 738th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:14:24, faster than 73% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:32 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:53 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and London 2024 were 5:04 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
