The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lee Melvin finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2025, in 1:07:31 for 119th of 1,600 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:17 quicker than the median and 180th of 1,600. Stronger after halfway: 1:49 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:47, was faster than 94% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
