The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Reece Smith crossed the line in 1:16:14: 413th of 1,442 men, faster than 71% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:06 quicker than the median and 410th of 1,442. If there was time left out there, it was on the farmers carry, 0:38 behind the median.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Olympia 2026 were 1:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
