The race, in words

The stations carried this race: faster than 90% of the field across all eight, against 62% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 2:42 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:40 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 and London 2023 were 3:34 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
