The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Shane Blakeley finished 459th of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:15:54, faster than 75% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:34 quicker than the median and 235th of 1,821. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:23 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:06 worse 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.
