The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:18:08 at Birmingham 2025 put Stephen Townsley 584th of 1,821 men in the Open division, ahead of 68% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:10 quicker than the median and 522nd of 1,821. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:00 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 4:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
