The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Amish Patel finished 206th of 359 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:25:30.
Legs and stations told different stories: 60% of the field beaten on the runs, 28% on the stations. The sled push cost the most time: 1:54 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:26 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
