The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, John Cobb crossed the line in 1:22:36: 863rd of 1,860 men, faster than 54% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:07 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:04 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:10 better against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
