The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2025, Jim Wylie crossed the line in 1:23:14: 838th of 1,821 men, faster than 54% of the field.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:26 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:10 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Birmingham 2023 were 6:24 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
