The race, in words
Laura Cleghorn finished 380th of 581 women in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:42:14.
A station race more than a running one: 56% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:37 on the median. A harder second half: 9:39 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 2:19 faster at London Olympia 2026 than at Cardiff 2025, a quicker course than most.
