The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:19:58 at Glasgow 2026 put Dale Mercer 216th of 613 men in the Open division, ahead of 65% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:47 quicker than the median and 110th of 613. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 0:33. The race faded late: the second half went 2:13 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Birmingham 2024 were 5:10 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
