The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Oslo 2025, Thomas Watel crossed the line in 1:19:37: 130th of 319 men, faster than 59% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 76% of the field beaten on the stations, against 46% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:02 quicker than the median and 65th of 319. The race faded late: the second half went 2:26 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Oslo gave the field time back: about 0:47 faster than the average race this season, by 795 athletes who raced both.
