The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Tyne Story-Taylor finished 320th of 545 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:37:23.
A station race more than a running one: 57% of the field beaten on the stations, against 30% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:16 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:20 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
