The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Earl Palmer finished 2,327th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:39:19.
The stations carried this race: faster than 37% of the field across all eight, against 6% on the runs. A harder second half: 4:56 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 14:49, behind 87% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
