The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Evie Richardson crossed the line in 1:22:05: 127th of 552 women, faster than 77% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 92% of the field beaten on the runs, 60% on the stations. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:16 quicker than the median and 62nd of 552. The sled pull cost the most time: 0:45 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 2:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
