The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:34:33 at Manchester 2026 put Luke Thomas 366th of 529 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 59% of the field beaten on the runs, 16% on the stations. On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 3:36. A harder second half: 2:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:07 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
