The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:12:25 at Manchester 2026 put Josh Skelton 97th of 551 men in the Open division, ahead of 82% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:19 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:08 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 3:47, ahead of 92% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2024 were 4:40 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
