The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Marianne Speed crossed the line in 1:24:06: 60th of 253 women, faster than 76% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:28 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:32 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
