The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Colin Bailey finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2025, in 1:07:51 for 167th of 1,821 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:04 quicker than the median and 218th of 1,821. A harder second half: 1:35 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:05, was faster than 87% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Manchester 2025 were 3:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
