The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:35 at Glasgow 2026 put Simon Ward 398th of 595 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 50% of the field beaten on the runs, 22% on the stations. The wall balls cost the most time: 3:33 slower than the median. A harder second half: 5:25 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Dublin 2024 were 3:17 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
