The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Lee-Watson finished 691st of 966 men in the Open division at Malaga 2025, in 1:28:42.
The wall balls cost the most time: 1:19 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Malaga 2025 and Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 were 2:12 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
