The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Patrick Mather finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2025, in 1:08:04 for 178th of 1,821 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:40 quicker than the median and 97th of 1,821. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:58 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:42, 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.
