The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Dublin 2023, Paul Bradley crossed the line in 1:30:22: 333rd of 777 men, faster than 57% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 73% of the field beaten on the stations, against 38% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 1:13 quicker than the median and 109th of 777. A harder second half: 1:08 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Dublin ran slow: the 476 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 5:09 slower here than at their other races.
