The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Will Barrett crossed the line in 1:17:55: 305th of 913 men, faster than 67% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 84% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 51% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:22 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 2:11 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and London Olympia 2026 were 1:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
