The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jacob Penkethman finished 648th of 913 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:34:26.
The runs carried this race: faster than 55% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 17% on the stations. The farmers carry was the standout, 0:37 quicker than the median and 109th of 913. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 3:17 behind the median.
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.
