The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Andrei Enescu crossed the line in 1:23:08: 431st of 913 men, faster than 53% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:10 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:07 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:38 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:51 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
