The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Hugh Johnson finished 197th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:09:13, faster than 86% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:17 quicker than the median and 149th of 1,442. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:20 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 4:54, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Tenerife 2026 were 8:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
