The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London 2023, Matt Kelly crossed the line in 1:13:34: 257th of 1,865 men, faster than 86% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 92% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 69% on the stations. Paced to finish: the second half went 5:14 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:40, was faster than 90% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London 2023 and London 2022 were 3:54 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
