The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Paula Cooper finished 446th of 646 women in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:44:43.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:56. The race faded late: the second half went 3:54 worse 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.
