The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ed Weaver finished 1,386th of 1,463 men in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:57:39.
On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 4:43. A harder second half: 5:09 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
