The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Katowice 2026, Billy Duckworth crossed the line in 1:11:36: 56th of 236 men, faster than 76% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:46 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:13 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 3:11, ahead of 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Katowice 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 3:06 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
