The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Steven Guthrie finished 834th of 1,182 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2023, in 1:37:47.
A station race more than a running one: 58% of the field beaten on the stations, against 12% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled push: 1:25 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 10:07 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Birmingham ran slow: the 823 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:37 slower here than at their other races.
