The race, in words
In the Open division at Houston 2025, Raymond Monela crossed the line in 1:23:55: 346th of 1,005 men, faster than 66% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:41 quicker than the median and 152nd of 1,005. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:56 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:44 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
