The race, in three figures
The race, in words
2:11:26 at London Olympia 2026 put Sam Saville 172nd of 177 men in the Open division.
The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 6:57 slower than the median. A harder second half: 6:25 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 14:07 in the roxzone was slower than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Olympia 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 5:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
