The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2023, Joshua Berrisford crossed the line in 1:23:15: 428th of 1,182 men, faster than 64% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 92% of the field across all eight, against 39% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:30 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:29 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Glasgow 2023 were 1:46 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
