The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Philson finished in the top 10% of the field at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, in 1:03:09 for 26th of 1,860 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:29 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:09 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 3:31, was faster than 96% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 and Malaga 2024 were 2:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
