The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Suleman Desai finished 376th of 642 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:29:34.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:10 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:16 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
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.
