The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Collins finished 532nd of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:17:23, faster than 71% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:58 on the median. A harder second half: 2:33 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:58, was faster than 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Manchester 2024 were 3:26 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
