The race, in three figures
The race, in words
59:42 at Houston 2025 put Malik Key on the age-group podium: 2nd of 178 in the 25–29 age group.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:41 quicker than the median and 6th of 1,005. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:51 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 3:48, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Houston 2025 and Dallas 2024 were 3:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
