The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tom Drake finished 273rd of 646 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:20:43, faster than 58% of the field.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:07 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:03 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
