The race, in words
Sarah Berrisford finished 297th of 532 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2023, in 1:35:10.
A station race more than a running one: 63% of the field beaten on the stations, against 32% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:00 quicker than the median and 159th of 532. Paced to finish: the second half went 6:07 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Birmingham ran slow: the 307 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:52 slower here than at their other races.
