The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tom Gaskell finished 875th of 1,361 men in the Open division at Madrid 2025, in 1:28:37.
The sled push was the standout, 0:32 quicker than the median and 209th of 1,361. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:17. A harder second half: 1:16 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 2:44 slower at Madrid 2025 than at Berlin 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
