The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Roger Burrows finished 1,282nd of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:21:02, faster than 54% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 73% of the field beaten on the stations, against 39% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:35 quicker than the median and 350th of 2,779. The race faded late: the second half went 4:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
London Excel gave the field time back: about 1:33 faster than the average race this season, by 3,460 athletes who raced both.
