The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Shaw finished 2,525th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:46:53.
The wall balls cost the most time: 4:08 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:26 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Malaga 2025 were 2:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
