The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Matthew Brammeier took 2nd of 87 in the 40–44 age group at Manchester 2026, in 1:03:45.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:05 quicker than the median and 74th of 529. Stronger after halfway: 2:11 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 3:37, ahead of 95% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
