The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Dublin 2025, Alex Darbey crossed the line in 1:12:33: 216th of 955 men, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 84% of the field beaten on the runs, 63% on the stations. The wall balls were where this race was made, 0:50 ahead of the median. Quick through the roxzone: 3:28, ahead of 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Dublin 2025 and Birmingham 2025 were 2:49 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
