The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Jack Sherratt finished 120th of 130 men in the Pro division at Manchester 2026, in 1:34:38.
Legs and stations told different stories: 25% of the field beaten on the runs, 5% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:41 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:13 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Manchester cost the whole field time: about 1:56 more than the average race this season, going by 330 athletes who raced both. 4:50 slower than at London 2024, the previous Pro race.
