The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2025, Kyle O'Donoghue crossed the line in 1:19:28: 583rd of 1,401 men, faster than 58% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the row: 0:33 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled pull, 0:45 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:33 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Cardiff ran slow: the 1,549 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:50 slower here than at their other races.
