The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Pro division at Manchester 2026, Louise Rudd crossed the line in 1:22:57: 29th of 83 women, faster than 65% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 80% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 51% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:53 behind the median. A harder second half: 1:09 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:19 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
