The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Paul Bransby finished 550th of 716 men in the Open division at London Olympia 2026, in 1:36:10.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:47 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 3:07 worse against the middle of the field than the first. The roxzone cost time: 12:30, behind 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both London Olympia 2026 and Madrid 2025 were 4:45 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
