The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ian Pickup finished 121st of 466 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:15:42, faster than 74% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 82% of the field beaten on the stations, against 56% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:30 ahead of the median.
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.
