The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Birmingham 2026, Kate Mackintosh crossed the line in 1:19:48: 107th of 280 women, faster than 62% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 77% of the field beaten on the stations, against 42% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sled pull: 1:03 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:19 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 2:48 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
