The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:31 at London Excel 2025 put Saul Ward 1,752nd of 2,771 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:03 quicker than the median and 515th of 2,771. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:36 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:49 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Oslo 2025 were 1:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
