The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Andrew Whittle finished 57th of 178 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2021, in 1:22:14, faster than 68% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 98% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 45% on the stations. The wall balls were the standout, 2:13 quicker than the median and 12th of 178. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:05 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2021 and London 2021 were 1:16 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
