The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:42:59 at Cardiff 2026 put Heather Bateman 256th of 351 women in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 50% of the field beaten on the runs, 15% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:27. The race faded late: the second half went 2:02 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
