The race, in words
Ryan Smith finished 533rd of 1,386 men in the Open division at Geneva 2025, in 1:19:28, faster than 62% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 73% of the field beaten on the runs, 45% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:30 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:39 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Geneva gave the field time back: about 0:48 faster than the average race this season, by 823 athletes who raced both. 3:52 faster than at Cardiff 2025, the previous Open race.
