The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Andrew Murphy finished 2,422nd of 2,771 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:44:57.
The runs carried this race: faster than 32% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 5% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 7:00 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Birmingham 2022 were 6:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
