The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Cardiff 2026, Chris Palmer crossed the line in 1:18:35: 318th of 913 men, faster than 65% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 0:54 quicker than the median and 308th of 913.
Athletes who raced both Cardiff 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 3:29 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
