The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2026, Kate Thrower crossed the line in 1:23:11: 60th of 268 women, faster than 78% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 3:15 on the median. Stronger after halfway: 1:55 better against the middle of the field than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and London 2024 were 5:14 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
