The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Berlin 2025, Sam Williamson crossed the line in 1:16:50: 713th of 1,851 men, faster than 62% of the field.
The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:35 ahead of the median. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 0:44. A harder second half: 1:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Berlin 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 7:41 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
