The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:07:43 at Cardiff 2026 put Michael Settle 86th of 533 men in the Pro division, ahead of 84% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 91% of the field beaten on the stations, against 63% on the runs. The wall balls were where this race was made, 2:57 ahead of the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:29 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 2:23 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
