The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Nicola Holmes finished in the top 10% of the field at Manchester 2026, in 1:13:42 for 65th of 825 women in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:03 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:21 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:00, was faster than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 1:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
