The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ciaran Hughes finished 797th of 955 men in the Open division at Dublin 2025, in 1:38:28.
A station race more than a running one: 33% of the field beaten on the stations, against 5% on the runs. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:30. The race faded late: the second half went 5:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Dublin gave the field time back: about 1:46 faster than the average race this season, by 1,442 athletes who raced both.
