The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Lynch finished 758th of 898 men in the Open division at Dublin 2025, in 1:38:11.
A station race more than a running one: 33% of the field beaten on the stations, against 8% on the runs. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 2:11 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:39 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Dublin ran fast: the 1,472 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:47 quicker here than at their other races.
