The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Birmingham 2022, Rob Philliskirk & Aarron Stafford crossed the line in 1:07:40: 116th of 358 men's teams, faster than 68% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 81% of the field beaten on the stations, against 53% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:51 on the median. A harder second half: 2:36 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Birmingham gained about 2:01.
