The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Kelly Swannell finished 637th of 825 women in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:48:38.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:18 on the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:28 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:09 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2024 were 7:04 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
