The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, Shawn Boothe crossed the line in 1:14:53: 389th of 1,463 men, faster than 73% of the field.
The sled pull was the standout, 0:39 quicker than the median and 295th of 1,463. A harder second half: 1:03 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2024 were 4:40 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
