The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Glasgow 2025, Ross Austin crossed the line in 1:19:13: 652nd of 1,445 men, faster than 55% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 84% of the field beaten on the stations, against 35% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:35 quicker than the median and 202nd of 1,445. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:13 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 5:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
