The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Madrid 2025, Samuel Wike crossed the line in 1:20:55: 481st of 1,312 men, faster than 63% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 78% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:08 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:15 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Madrid 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 1:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
