The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Alder & Susan Alder finished 1,114th of 1,372 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:31:28.
A station race more than a running one: 36% of the field beaten on the stations, against 15% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:54 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
London Excel gave the field time back: about 1:45 faster than the average race this season, by 1,634 teams who raced both.
