The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ben Pomeroy finished 186th of 677 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:14:07, faster than 73% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:11 quicker than the median and 212th of 677. Stronger after halfway: 4:13 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 4:48, ahead of 88% 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.
