The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Mcgriskin finished 715th of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:20:08, faster than 61% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 0:42 quicker than the median and 666th of 1,821. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:14. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:16 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and London 2024 were 3:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
