The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matt Wilkinson finished 1,672nd of 1,865 men in the Open division at London 2023, in 1:49:53.
The stations carried this race: faster than 28% of the field across all eight, against 4% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:13 behind the median. A harder second half: 7:49 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London 2023 and London 2022 were 3:54 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
