The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Wowk finished 683rd of 1,860 men in the Open division at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, in 1:19:07, faster than 63% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 79% of the field beaten on the stations, against 47% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:37 on the median. A harder second half: 1:23 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.
