The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Gethin Ellis crossed the line in 1:19:30: 183rd of 456 men, faster than 60% of the field.
The sled push cost the most time: 0:41 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:42 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
