The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tony Houghton finished 370th of 646 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:26:32.
The wall balls cost the most time: 1:41 slower than the median. A harder second half: 4:50 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.
