The race, in three figures
The race, in words
James Payne took 2nd of 60 in the 16–24 age group at Glasgow 2026, in 1:02:10.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 2:26 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:00 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 2:52, ahead of 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Manchester 2025 were 4:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
