The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sam Brown finished 48th of 359 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:07:58, faster than 87% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:50 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:58 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
