The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Smith finished 2,640th of 2,779 men in the Open division at London Excel 2025, in 1:54:54.
The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 8:07 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:51 worse against the middle of the field than the first. The roxzone cost time: 15:12, behind 90% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Excel 2025 and Birmingham 2025 were 3:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
