The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Alex Burns finished 607th of 1,917 men in the Open division at London 2025, in 1:15:44, faster than 68% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 80% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 54% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:51 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:20 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both London 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 2:07 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
