The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Dean Hardy finished 159th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:08:09, faster than 89% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:36 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:38 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:55, ahead of 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Rome 2025 were 3:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
