Durations are the official mat-to-mat splits. Start times are reconstructed (splits laid back to back, the Roxzone total spread evenly across the 15 transitions), so heart rate on a short station can include a few seconds of the transition either side.

PB splits from Hyrox - London Olympia 25/26 - 1:23:47 🎉 are watch laps that include transition time; today's are mat-to-mat, so station deltas flatter today a little.

· PB chase · Open Men's Solo · 2 races in this division, up to this one

+5:55 slower than the PB it was chasing PB to beat: 1:23:47 · London Olympia · 28 Mar 26

Green is a PB in this division, red is slower than the PB that stood before the race. Only races up to this one are shown; simulations are left out.

in his words
Two races within 20hrs of each other?! WHAT WAS I THINKING?? But I am so proud to have got only 6 mins slower than my PB given it was 2 races in 2 days! Felt happy and smiling throughout - hopefully some good Sportograf pics to come...!
