The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Andrew Sands finished 1,800th of 1,821 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2025, in 2:19:36.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 10:29. The race faded late: the second half went 15:36 worse against the middle of the field than the first. The roxzone cost time: 12:54, behind 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
