The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gareth Evans finished 164th of 219 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:37:38.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 2:15. A harder second half: 3:37 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both London Olympia 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 5:08 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
