The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Wright took 2nd of 98 in the 35–39 age group at Cardiff 2026, in 1:02:10.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:37 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:08 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 2:38, ahead of 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Warsaw 2026 were 1:16 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
