The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, Jamie Muir crossed the line in 1:19:55: 620th of 1,463 men, faster than 58% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 1:03 quicker than the median and 468th of 1,463. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 0:50 behind the median. Stronger after halfway: 2:41 better against the middle of the field 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.
