The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:43:19 at Birmingham 2026 put Andy Appleby 590th of 693 men in the Open division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 30% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 9% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 11:05 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 10:38 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
