The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:01:33 at Madrid 2025 put Matthew Blackwell on the age-group podium: 2nd of 285 in the 25–29 age group.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:43 quicker than the median and 17th of 1,361. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:24 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:24, was faster than 98% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Madrid 2025 and London 2024 were 3:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
