The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jon Betson finished 490th of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:16:35, faster than 73% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 80% of the field beaten on the stations, against 57% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:35 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:41 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
