The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Sam Parry crossed the line in 1:19:01: 278th of 677 men, faster than 59% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 76% of the field beaten on the stations, against 39% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:28 ahead of the median.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:44 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
