The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Luke Lawrence crossed the line in 1:12:19: 120th of 693 men, faster than 83% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:04 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:42 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Olympia 2026 were 1:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
