The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:40:10 at Manchester 2026 put Mark Crawford 410th of 529 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 50% of the field beaten on the stations, against 9% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 1:32 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:18 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.
