The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Stuart Roberts crossed the line in 1:19:44: 695th of 1,821 men, faster than 62% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:09 quicker than the median and 275th of 1,821. Stronger after halfway: 2:32 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Manchester 2025 were 3:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
