The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Lynn finished 798th of 1,361 men in the Open division at Madrid 2025, in 1:26:40.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:15 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:01 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Madrid 2025 and Berlin 2025 were 2:44 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
