The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Beth Telford finished 455th of 748 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:38:34.
A station race more than a running one: 57% of the field beaten on the stations, against 28% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 0:42 on the median. A harder second half: 2:59 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Berlin 2025 were 1:37 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
