The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2026, Phil Jenkins crossed the line in 1:20:47: 577th of 1,442 men, faster than 60% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 65% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 45% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 0:55 ahead of the median. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:56.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
