The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Dodds finished 1,532nd of 1,600 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 2:02:43.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 3:26. A harder second half: 18:37 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
