The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:20:57 at London Excel 2025 put Alan Mcdonogh on the age-group podium: 2nd of 12 in the 65–69 age group.
The runs carried this race: faster than 73% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 38% on the stations. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:46 quicker than the median and 706th of 2,779. The wall balls cost the most time: 3:05 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Birmingham 2025 were 3:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
