The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ben Humphrey finished in the top 10% of the field at Cardiff 2026, in 1:06:15 for 25th of 466 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:55 quicker than the median and 57th of 466. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:52 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 2:45, was faster than 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:45 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
