The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:31:11 at Manchester 2026 put Tom Arrandale 991st of 1,463 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 45% of the field beaten on the stations, against 20% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 1:19 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:05 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Manchester 2022 were 3:55 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
