The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:33:38 at Birmingham 2025 put Chris Backe 345th of 523 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 1:59 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:27 worse against the middle of the field than the first. 10:10 in the roxzone was slower than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
