The race, in three figures
The race, in words
William Reed finished in the top 10% of the field at Istanbul 2026, in 1:04:13 for 33rd of 743 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 2:00 on the median. On the farmers carry the field had the edge, by 1:20. Quick through the roxzone: 6:00, ahead of 98% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Istanbul 2026 and Rimini 2026 were 3:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
