The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ubayd Ahmed finished 2,346th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:39:59.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:47 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:24 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 14:40 in the roxzone was slower than 85% of the field.
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.
