The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:32:07 at Glasgow 2026 put Ewan Black 984th of 1,452 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 45% of the field beaten on the runs, 22% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 2:07 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:14 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2026 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:36 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
