The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:13:15 at Manchester 2026 put Joshua Clifford 113th of 551 men in the Open division, ahead of 80% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 87% of the field beaten on the runs, 67% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 0:53 on the median.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
