The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:28:45 at Barcelona 2025 put Helen Williams 98th of 264 women in the Open division, ahead of 63% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 80% of the field beaten on the runs, 35% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 9:34 behind the median. A harder second half: 11:23 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Barcelona ran slow: the 492 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:52 slower here than at their other races. 9:11 slower than at Dublin 2024, the previous Open race.
