The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rome 2025, Joshua Southern crossed the line in 1:19:12: 569th of 1,367 men, faster than 58% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 69% of the field beaten on the runs, 46% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:08 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:14 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2025 and Rimini 2025 were 1:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
