The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:47:31 at London Excel 2025 put Mark Parsons 2,536th of 2,779 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 6:51. A harder second half: 6:44 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
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.
