The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:45:57 at Birmingham 2026 put David Caldwell 601st of 693 men in the Open division.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 3:15. A harder second half: 3:48 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 4:57 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
