The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:27:17 at Birmingham 2026 put Lorraine Johnson 172nd of 280 women in the Pro division.
The stations carried this race: faster than 55% of the field across all eight, against 28% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:47 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:18 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:53 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
