The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Andy Johnson crossed the line in 1:11:36: 287th of 1,821 men, faster than 84% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:30 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:58 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
