The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:45:23 at Manchester 2026 put David Hayward 444th of 529 men in the Open division.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 2:20 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 6:53 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 11:49, behind 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
