The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Rome 2026, Damian Prestwich crossed the line in 1:22:46: 261st of 581 men, faster than 55% of the field.
Paced to finish: the second half went 1:23 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
