The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Glasgow 2026, Ricky Burns crossed the line in 1:07:54: 54th of 206 men, faster than 74% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 82% of the field beaten on the stations, against 50% on the runs. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:38 better against the middle of the field than the first. Time in the roxzone, 3:02, was faster than 91% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 2:25 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
