The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:29:11 at Glasgow 2025 put Ed Strong 1,021st of 1,445 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 47% of the field beaten on the runs, 19% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:23. A harder second half: 2:45 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 5:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
