The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ben Pickford finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2025, in 1:06:31 for 125th of 1,821 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:19 quicker than the median and 162nd of 1,821. Time in the roxzone, 4:37, was faster than 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Paris 2024 were 5:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
