The race, in words
Mike Bardell finished 749th of 1,367 men in the Open division at Rome 2025, in 1:23:53.
Legs and stations told different stories: 71% of the field beaten on the runs, 25% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 5:02 slower than the median. A harder second half: 4:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
That was 1:03 off the time at Sharjah 2025.
