The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ross Williams finished 356th of 1,452 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2026, in 1:14:41, faster than 76% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 84% of the field beaten on the runs, 61% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 0:40 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:42 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.
