The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Glasgow 2026, Blair Paterson crossed the line in 1:19:13: 222nd of 595 men, faster than 63% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:01 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Manchester 2026 were 2:25 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
