The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Reuben Simpson finished 322nd of 456 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:32:20.
Legs and stations told different stories: 45% of the field beaten on the runs, 19% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 3:01 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Dublin 2025 were 1:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
