The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Oboyle finished 677th of 1,158 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:25:14.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 0:48 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:22 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 5:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
