The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Dublin 2024, Dominic Forte crossed the line in 1:18:07: 407th of 1,221 men, faster than 67% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 65% of the field across all eight, against 44% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 4:43 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:17 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Dublin 2024 and Birmingham 2023 were 7:15 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
