The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Daniel Ellis finished 673rd of 913 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:35:52.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:25. Stronger after halfway: 1:28 better against the middle of the field than before it.
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.
