The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London 2025, David Macfarlane crossed the line in 1:11:15: 356th of 1,917 men, faster than 81% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:09 quicker than the median and 182nd of 1,917. Stronger after halfway: 4:41 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 4:18, ahead of 85% of the field.
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.
