The race, in words
Riccardo Erra finished 1,630th of 1,860 men in the Open division at Sports Direct HYROX London 2024, in 1:44:37.
Legs and stations told different stories: 33% of the field beaten on the runs, 7% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 4:37 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 4:17 better against the middle of the field 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.
