The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, Jack Barlow crossed the line in 1:13:37: 335th of 1,463 men, faster than 77% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:20 quicker than the median and 131st of 1,463. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:57 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Manchester 2024 were 2:38 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
