The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:20:26 at Madrid 2025 put Michael Cleary-Gaffney 548th of 1,361 men in the Open division, ahead of 60% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 71% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 45% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:00 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:19 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Madrid 2025 and London 2025 were 1:50 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
