The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Chris Tomlinson finished 91st of 677 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:08:04, faster than 87% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:07 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:28 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:41, ahead of 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
