The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Alex Skelton crossed the line in 1:20:42: 224th of 528 men, faster than 58% of the field.
On the sled push the field had the edge, by 0:39. Stronger after halfway: 2:56 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
