The race, in words
Ben Houghton finished 129th of 270 men in the Open division at Dubai 2023, in 1:28:54, faster than 52% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 37% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 0:56 quicker than the median and 74th of 270.
Dubai gave the field time back: about 3:03 faster than the average race this season, by 109 athletes who raced both.
