The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Raymond finished 2,611th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:52:07.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 6:05. A harder second half: 4:56 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 14:46, behind 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and London 2024 were 5:04 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
