The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:32:55 at Glasgow 2026 put Brian Middleton 188th of 206 men in the Pro division.
The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 3:54 slower than the median. A harder second half: 7:13 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
