The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lucy Clark finished 382nd of 547 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:43:03.
A station race more than a running one: 61% of the field beaten on the stations, against 22% on the runs. The race faded late: the second half went 5:33 worse against the middle of the field than the first. The roxzone cost time: 11:55, behind 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 2:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
