The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Niamh O'Brien finished 345th of 520 women in the Open division at Rome 2025, in 1:37:32.
The runs carried this race: faster than 50% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 23% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:22. A harder second half: 2:34 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2025 and Berlin 2025 were 3:21 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
