The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jacob Lidgett finished in the top 10% of the field at Birmingham 2026, in 1:01:18 for 37th of 1,442 men in the Open division.
The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:41 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:51 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:19, ahead of 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
