The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London 2024, Mark Bond crossed the line in 1:16:33: 397th of 1,637 men, faster than 76% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 86% of the field beaten on the runs, 65% on the stations. The wall balls were the standout, 0:58 quicker than the median and 515th of 1,637. A harder second half: 2:10 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
London ran slow: the 1,496 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:32 slower here than at their other races. That was 2:06 off the time at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024.
