The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ben Fraser finished 221st of 693 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:17:11, faster than 68% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:16 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
