The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Murray Costello finished 334th of 456 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:33:27.
A station race more than a running one: 44% of the field beaten on the stations, against 17% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 0:46 quicker than the median and 159th of 456. The sled pull cost the most time: 1:17 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 4:00 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
