The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Vanessa Rees finished 148th of 263 women in the Open division at Manchester 2026, in 1:36:40.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 3:00 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 2:54 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it. The roxzone cost time: 10:41, behind 89% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2026 and Birmingham 2025 were 1:35 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
