The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Luke Medwell finished 997th of 1,463 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:31:24.
On the burpee broad jumps the field had the edge, by 1:36. The race faded late: the second half went 1:44 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
