The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Gary Crawford took 2nd of 285 in the 35–39 age group at Birmingham 2026, in 59:00.
The wall balls were the standout, 3:40 quicker than the median and 6th of 1,442. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:17 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:11, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Gdansk 2026 were 1:19 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
