The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:41:01 at Manchester 2026 put Christian Rooney 1,195th of 1,463 men in the Open division.
If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 3:42 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:17 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London Excel 2025 were 1:07 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
