The race, in words
Brian McGrath finished 1,057th of 1,312 men in the Open division at Madrid 2025, in 1:39:08.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:05 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:54 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 1:06 slower at Madrid 2025 than at Dublin 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
