The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at London Excel 2025, Rory Ashley & Pierre Wellington crossed the line in 1:07:08: 601st of 1,815 men's teams, faster than 67% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 88% of the field beaten on the stations, against 56% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:04 quicker than the median and 93rd of 1,815. A harder second half: 1:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced London Excel gained about 2:20.
