The race, in words

The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 0:36 ahead of the median. If there was time left out there, it was on the sled push, 0:38 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 2:10 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Manchester ran slow: the 179 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 1:49 slower here than at their other races. That was 6:51 off the time at Warsaw 2025.
