The race, in three figures
The race, in words
William Pollock finished 640th of 1,452 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2026, in 1:21:25, faster than 56% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 75% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 41% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:00 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:56 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Glasgow 2024 were 6:09 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
