The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Louise Rudd won the 50–54 age group at Birmingham 2026 in 1:10:24, first of 29.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:21 quicker than the median and 30th of 547. The race faded late: the second half went 1:32 worse against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:50, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Manchester 2025 were 2:47 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
