The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Ed Lucas crossed the line in 1:14:30: 752nd of 2,779 men, faster than 73% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 87% of the field beaten on the stations, against 53% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:30 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:43 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.
