The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Vita Zorge crossed the line in 1:22:38: 119th of 545 women, faster than 78% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 90% of the field beaten on the runs, 59% on the stations. The wall balls were where this race was made, 1:29 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 4:03 better against the middle of the field than before it.
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.
