The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Simon Taylor finished 267th of 528 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:24:00.
Legs and stations told different stories: 62% of the field beaten on the runs, 37% on the stations. The sled push cost the most time: 1:04 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Malaga 2026 were 1:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
