The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, William Harris crossed the line in 1:11:12: 82nd of 551 men, faster than 85% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 1:28 quicker than the median and 115th of 551. Stronger after halfway: 1:13 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
