The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Weaver finished 61st of 359 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:09:15, faster than 83% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:05 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:25 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:40, was faster than 89% 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.
