The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:52:57 at Manchester 2026 put James Davies 475th of 529 men in the Open division.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 3:35. A harder second half: 4:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 20:35, behind 99% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:07 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
