The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Laura Shepherd crossed the line in 1:22:15: 110th of 545 women, faster than 80% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:06 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 3:42 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Tenerife 2026 were 10:11 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
