The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Barcelona 2025, Aidan Fitzgerald crossed the line in 1:22:12: 357th of 795 men, faster than 55% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 75% of the field beaten on the stations, against 41% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:41 quicker than the median and 31st of 795. Stronger after halfway: 2:59 better against the middle of the field than before it.
The field ran 1:35 slower at Barcelona 2025 than at Glasgow 2025, which makes this time better than it looks.
