The race, in words
David Bolton finished 101st of 529 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:12:59, faster than 81% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:15 quicker than the median and 54th of 529. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 8:27 behind the median. 27:42 in the roxzone was slower than 99% 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.
