The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Josh Butten finished 1,840th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:28:44.
A station race more than a running one: 57% of the field beaten on the stations, against 19% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:23 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:51.
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.
