The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Nick Prutton crossed the line in 1:17:01: 510th of 1,821 men, faster than 72% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:31 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:39 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.
