The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tom Gibson finished 948th of 1,401 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2025, in 1:28:33.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:50 on the median. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 1:22 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2025 and Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
