The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Lewis Maitland-Knibb finished 416th of 1,463 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:15:30, faster than 72% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 86% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 62% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 2:52 quicker than the median and 45th of 1,463. Stronger after halfway: 1:32 better against the middle of the field 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.
