The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Josh Bill crossed the line in 1:20:13: 718th of 1,821 men, faster than 61% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 0:47 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:13 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Dublin 2024 were 1:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
