The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Scott Mcdonald finished 537th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:19:39, faster than 63% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 0:37 on the median. The sled push cost the most time: 0:37 slower than the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:52 better against the middle of the field than the first.
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.
