The race, in words
In the Doubles Open division at Birmingham 2026, Olivia Collins & Taylor Shuff crossed the line in 1:22:05: 288th of 586 mixed teams, faster than 51% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 65% of the field beaten on the stations, against 41% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 0:31 quicker than the median and 182nd of 586. A harder second half: 2:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Birmingham gained about 0:49.
