The race, in words
Kyle Kinton & Adam Parry finished 259th of 358 men's teams in the Doubles Open division at Birmingham 2022, in 1:18:29.
A station race more than a running one: 48% of the field beaten on the stations, against 16% on the runs. No single station decided it: every one landed within 0:18 of the median. A harder second half: 1:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Birmingham ran fast: the 253 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:01 quicker here than at their other races.
