The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:30:18 at Madrid 2025 put Chris Spellerberg 835th of 1,312 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 50% of the field beaten on the runs, 30% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:31. A harder second half: 6:36 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Madrid ran slow: the 1,531 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:27 slower here than at their other races. 2:07 faster than at Birmingham 2025, the previous Open race.
