The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Christopher Roach finished 413th of 529 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:40:48.
On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 5:23. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:16 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:52 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
