The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Ady King crossed the line in 1:17:48: 160th of 523 men, faster than 69% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:08 quicker than the median and 119th of 523. A harder second half: 1:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and London 2024 were 3:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
