The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Charlie Melvoin finished 61st of 529 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:09:13, faster than 89% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 2:48 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:25 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
