The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2023, Morag Thayne crossed the line in 1:24:48: 143rd of 532 women, faster than 73% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 89% of the field beaten on the stations, against 56% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 1:49 ahead of the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:39 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Glasgow 2023 were 1:31 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
