The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Adam Webb finished 451st of 677 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:28:56.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:39 on the median. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:55 slower than the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:26 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.
