The race, in words
Dave Woods finished 946th of 1,182 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2023, in 1:43:57.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:30 quicker than the median and 419th of 1,182. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 3:03 behind the median. A harder second half: 3:59 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Birmingham ran slow: the 823 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:37 slower here than at their other races.
