The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Minnah Deef crossed the line in 1:27:19: 198th of 646 women, faster than 69% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 90% of the field beaten on the runs, 43% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 3:52 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:10 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:31 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
