The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:50:51 at Birmingham 2026 put Simon Neale 340th of 359 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 27% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 4% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 10:05 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 11:05 worse 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.
