The race, in three figures
The race, in words
George Burton finished 303rd of 456 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:29:41.
The runs carried this race: faster than 48% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 27% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 2:34 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:05 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Amsterdam 2026 were 5:28 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
