The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Emily Barron finished 435th of 547 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:50:07.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 7% on the runs. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 2:30. The race faded late: the second half went 1:51 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Birmingham ran fast: the 1,285 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:21 quicker here than at their other races.
