The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Alex Cooper finished 392nd of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:14:26, faster than 79% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 86% of the field beaten on the stations, against 58% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:52 quicker than the median and 268th of 1,821. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:04 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
