The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Charlie Wan finished 221st of 1,600 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:11:19, faster than 86% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:49 quicker than the median and 123rd of 1,600. A harder second half: 1:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:09, was faster than 86% 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.
