The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:27:03 at Birmingham 2026 put Liberty Thompson 183rd of 545 women in the Open division, ahead of 66% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 83% of the field beaten on the runs, 47% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:04 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:20 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Birmingham 2024 were 6:48 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
