The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:18:57 at Manchester 2026 put Abigail Ackroyd 28th of 263 women in the Open division, ahead of 89% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 99% of the field beaten on the stations, against 78% on the runs. The burpee broad jumps were the standout, 3:53 quicker than the median and 7th of 263. A harder second half: 1:23 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
