The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Best finished 683rd of 955 men in the Open division at Dublin 2025, in 1:30:28.
A station race more than a running one: 43% of the field beaten on the stations, against 21% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:57 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:54 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Dublin 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 3:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
