The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Laurence Giffin finished 119th of 898 men in the Open division at Dublin 2025, in 1:09:18, faster than 87% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 92% of the field beaten on the stations, against 72% on the runs. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:36 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 3:20, ahead of 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Dublin 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
