The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Natalie Pepper took 2nd of 84 in the 40–44 age group at Birmingham 2026, in 1:13:24.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 3:08 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:52 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 5:56, was faster than 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
