The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Niall Cassidy finished 428th of 551 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:40:41.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 1:42. A harder second half: 2:10 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.
