The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ollie Wheatley finished 321st of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:12:36, faster than 82% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 92% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 64% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:53 behind the median. Quick through the roxzone: 4:40, ahead of 95% 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.
