The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, James Minter crossed the line in 1:19:06: 578th of 1,463 men, faster than 61% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 70% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 45% on the stations. On the sled push the field had the edge, by 0:39.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:07 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
