The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:26:15 at Cardiff 2026 put Graham Pye 523rd of 528 men in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 7:31 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 10:03 worse against the middle of the field than the first. The roxzone cost time: 9:21, behind 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
