The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Chris Harger crossed the line in 1:10:33: 74th of 359 men, faster than 79% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 91% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 66% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:59 quicker than the median and 98th of 359. Time in the roxzone, 4:48, was faster than 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London 2024 were 7:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
