The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Daniel Townsend finished 613th of 1,361 men in the Open division at Madrid 2025, in 1:22:13, faster than 55% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 62% of the field beaten on the stations, against 39% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:56 on the median. A harder second half: 1:12 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.
