The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Benjamin Hopkins finished 166th of 1,401 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2025, in 1:09:14, faster than 88% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:48 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:57 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2025 and London 2025 were 1:00 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
