The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:37:58 at Manchester 2026 put Garry Buck 1,140th of 1,463 men in the Open division.
Nowhere gained more than the wall balls: 0:34 on the median. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 2:46 slower than the median. A harder second half: 3:46 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway 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.
