The race, in three figures
The race, in words
John Walker finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2026, in 1:05:58 for 35th of 359 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:20 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:32 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Birmingham 2022 were 3:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
