The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Ian Findlay crossed the line in 1:09:29: 173rd of 1,600 men, faster than 89% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:49 on the median. A harder second half: 2:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:01, was faster than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Rimini 2025 were 1:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
