The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Zack Bond finished 910th of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 1:24:54.
Legs and stations told different stories: 64% of the field beaten on the runs, 41% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:55 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:32 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 4:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
