The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jack Smith finished 105th of 528 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:13:10, faster than 80% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:33 quicker than the median and 107th of 528. Paced to finish: the second half went 4:44 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 2:55, was faster than 86% of the field.
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.
