The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sean O'Connor finished 1,559th of 1,638 men in the Open division at Belgium 2025, in 1:54:35.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 9:37 slower than the median. A harder second half: 11:55 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Belgium 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 5:10 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
