The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:18:01 at Birmingham 2026 put Stuart Matthews 144th of 359 men in the Open division, ahead of 60% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:33 quicker than the median and 71st of 359. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:47 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London 2024 were 7:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
