The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, April Wild crossed the line in 1:31:12: 367th of 825 women, faster than 56% of the field.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 0:41 behind the median. A harder second half: 2:41 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
