The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gary Hunt finished 239th of 270 men in the Open division at Dubai 2023, in 1:57:03.
A station race more than a running one: 35% of the field beaten on the stations, against 9% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:32 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:14 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Dubai gave the field time back: about 3:03 faster than the average race this season, by 109 athletes who raced both.
