The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Aidan Hesslewood finished 714th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:24:41.
A station race more than a running one: 60% of the field beaten on the stations, against 32% on the runs. The sled pull was where this race was made, 0:36 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:28 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:43 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
