The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:14:29 at Manchester 2026 put Joshua Atherton 377th of 1,463 men in the Open division, ahead of 74% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 3:37 quicker than the median and 7th of 1,463. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:41 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:07 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
