The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London Olympia 2026, Gabrielle Vignard crossed the line in 1:33:21: 267th of 581 women, faster than 54% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 66% of the field beaten on the runs, 35% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:16 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:56 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced London Olympia gained about 1:28.
