The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:41 at Birmingham 2026 put Lucy Pritchard 181st of 279 women in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 54% of the field beaten on the stations, against 25% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:58 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:33 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 4:14 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
