The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Ryan Gibson at Birmingham 2026: 59:03, 23rd of 693 men in the Pro division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:02 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:13 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 3:51, was faster than 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 2:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
