The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Steve Playford finished 1,057th of 1,158 men in the Open division at Barcelona 2026, in 1:44:03.
The sled push was the standout, 0:46 quicker than the median and 79th of 1,158. The burpee broad jumps cost the most time: 4:01 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 7:25 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Barcelona 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 2:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
