The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Turner finished 575th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:20:44, faster than 60% of the field.
The stations carried this race: faster than 68% of the field across all eight, against 48% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 1:33 quicker than the median and 305th of 1,442. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:25 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 3:59 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
