The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Marlena Kowal finished 723rd of 825 women in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:58:19.
A station race more than a running one: 41% of the field beaten on the stations, against 4% on the runs. The wall balls cost the most time: 1:12 slower than the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Manchester ran slow: the 795 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:18 slower here than at their other races.
