The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mike Ward finished 699th of 1,036 men in the Open division at Malaga 2026, in 1:25:18.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 0:38 slower than the median. A harder second half: 2:17 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Malaga 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 2:18 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
