The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Alun Davies crossed the line in 1:09:09: 104th of 677 men, faster than 85% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 1:58 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:21 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:48, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Geneva 2026 were 2:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
