The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rich McGonagle finished 444th of 595 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2026, in 1:35:56.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:01 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:24 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 2:27 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
