The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Billy Priestley crossed the line in 1:15:54: 847th of 2,779 men, faster than 70% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:59 quicker than the median and 286th of 2,779. A harder second half: 1:07 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 3:32 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
