The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Sam Morley crossed the line in 1:11:57: 82nd of 359 men, faster than 77% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:29 on the median. A harder second half: 2:37 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Tenerife 2026 were 8:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
