The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Simon Potkins finished 304th of 1,917 men in the Open division at London 2025, in 1:10:20, faster than 84% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:09 quicker than the median and 177th of 1,917. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:18 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both London 2025 and Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 were 4:07 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
