The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Dublin 2025, Alan Watters crossed the line in 1:21:46: 468th of 955 men, faster than 51% of the field.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:51 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:58 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Dublin 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
