The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, David Webster crossed the line in 1:15:33: 486th of 1,860 men, faster than 74% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 84% of the field across all eight, against 56% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:55 quicker than the median and 107th of 1,860. A harder second half: 1:11 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.
