The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Macphie finished 159th of 674 men in the Open division at Nice 2024, in 1:16:22, faster than 76% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 92% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:36 quicker than the median and 65th of 674. A harder second half: 1:38 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Nice ran slow: the 445 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:49 slower here than at their other races. An improvement of 12:27 on London 2023.
