The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Laura Foran crossed the line in 1:27:52: 193rd of 547 women, faster than 65% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 73% of the field beaten on the stations, against 52% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:20 on 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.
