The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Bridie McDonald finished 617th of 887 women in the Open division at Birmingham 2026, in 1:41:22.
The stations carried this race: faster than 48% of the field across all eight, against 19% on the runs. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:26 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:11 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2026 and Rome 2026 were 2:58 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
