The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:39:49 at Manchester 2026 put Brian Donnelly 420th of 551 men in the Open division.
The sandbag lunges were where this race was made, 1:43 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:52 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. 11:56 in the roxzone was slower than 93% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Dublin 2025 were 1:05 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
