The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Irons finished 132nd of 528 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:14:59, faster than 75% of the field.
The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:40 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:37 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 4:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
