The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Dan Smith & Dan Coene finished 666th of 1,010 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at London 2025, in 1:15:06.
A station race more than a running one: 53% of the field beaten on the stations, against 25% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:18 of the median. A harder second half: 1:06 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
London ran fast: the 793 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:03 quicker here than at their other races.
