The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Peter Rees finished 331st of 677 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:22:50, faster than 51% of the field.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 2:54. A harder second half: 2:22 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
