The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Leigh Tann crossed the line in 1:20:29: 369th of 913 men, faster than 60% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:11 quicker than the median and 49th of 913. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:42 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:41 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:45 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
