The race, in three figures
The race, in words
A top 10% finish for Charlotte Mathews at Birmingham 2026: 1:14:01, 65th of 887 women in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:35 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:06 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 5:37, ahead of 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
