The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Excel 2025, Peter Roberts crossed the line in 1:21:20: 1,304th of 2,779 men, faster than 53% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 68% of the field beaten on the stations, against 43% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:29 on the median. A harder second half: 1:43 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
London Excel gave the field time back: about 1:33 faster than the average race this season, by 3,460 athletes who raced both.
