The race, in words
Richard Sullivan finished 1,317th of 1,462 men in the Open division at New York 2025, in 1:51:33.
Legs and stations told different stories: 30% of the field beaten on the runs, 8% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 6:20 behind the median. A harder second half: 7:40 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced New York gained about 2:30. 14:58 slower than at Malaga 2025, the previous Open race.
