The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rome 2025, Paul Flaherty crossed the line in 1:21:24: 654th of 1,367 men, faster than 52% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:44 on the median. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:21. The race faded late: the second half went 1:54 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2025 and Dublin 2024 were 3:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
