The race, in three figures
The race, in words
57:49 at Warsaw 2026 put Paul O Brien on the age-group podium: 2nd of 71 in the 40–44 age group.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:34 ahead of the median. Quick through the roxzone: 3:37, ahead of 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Warsaw 2026 and Glasgow 2026 were 2:20 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
