The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:34:37 at Birmingham 2026 put Richard Martin 604th of 693 men in the Pro division.
The runs carried this race: faster than 28% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 8% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 5:39 slower than the median. A harder second half: 8:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 2:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
