The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2023, Jake Scholefield crossed the line in 1:24:32: 482nd of 1,182 men, faster than 59% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 45% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:17 on the median. A harder second half: 2:32 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
The field ran 1:46 slower at Birmingham 2023 than at Glasgow 2023, which makes this time better than it looks.
