The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Aaron Hearn finished 212th of 646 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:17:16, faster than 67% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 77% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 2:34 quicker than the median and 45th of 646. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:16 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.
