The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Dave Ling finished 1,708th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:26:58.
A station race more than a running one: 53% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:43 ahead of the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:56.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and London 2025 were 1:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
