The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Craig Stout finished 1,098th of 1,442 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:40:22.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 5:22. A harder second half: 6:27 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
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.
