The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Rob Osborn finished 453rd of 551 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:44:41.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 4:25 behind the median. A harder second half: 12:44 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Cardiff 2025 were 2:39 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
