The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Oliver Hewett finished 600th of 913 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:31:21.
The sled push was the standout, 0:30 quicker than the median and 178th of 913. If there was time left out there, it was on the farmers carry, 1:40 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:13 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.
