The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Fred Smith crossed the line in 1:19:07: 653rd of 1,821 men, faster than 64% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:22 quicker than the median and 199th of 1,821.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
