The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Paddy Flood finished 125th of 639 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2025, in 1:13:09, faster than 80% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:58 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:38 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2025 and London 2025 were 1:00 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
