The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Abigail Cast finished 103rd of 279 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:29:28, faster than 63% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 42% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:31. A harder second half: 1:22 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 2:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
