The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Davies finished 548th of 693 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:37:32.
The wall balls cost the most time: 2:44 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:57 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.
