The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Donoghue finished 77th of 528 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:10:33, faster than 85% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:09 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:59 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and London Olympia 2026 were 1:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
