The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Simon Davidian finished 1,139th of 1,860 men in the Open division at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, in 1:28:07.
A station race more than a running one: 57% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:10 on the median. A harder second half: 3:17 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Sports Direct HYROX London ran fast: the 1,203 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:15 quicker here than at their other races. 1:35 faster than at Copenhagen 2024, the previous Open race.
