The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Sandra Mackenzie finished 493rd of 547 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 2:04:00.
Legs and stations told different stories: 28% of the field beaten on the runs, 5% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 9:18. Stronger after halfway: 6:58 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Dublin 2025 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
