The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Leon O’Regan crossed the line in 1:09:39: 230th of 1,821 men, faster than 87% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:45 quicker than the median and 185th of 1,821. A harder second half: 1:49 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:04, was faster than 87% 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.
