The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, Maxwell Mason crossed the line in 1:14:01: 355th of 1,463 men, faster than 76% of the field.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:56 ahead of the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:49 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 3:27, ahead of 97% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Poznan 2025 were 1:21 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
