The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Rob Humphries crossed the line in 1:16:50: 152nd of 456 men, faster than 67% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:45 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:46 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 2:53, was faster than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Sports Direct HYROX London 2024 were 4:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
