The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Thomas Maughan finished 330th of 529 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:30:10.
Legs and stations told different stories: 53% of the field beaten on the runs, 23% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 3:57. Stronger after halfway: 4:04 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Glasgow 2024 were 8:02 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
