The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:34:25 at Birmingham 2025 put Alan Anderson 1,125th of 1,600 men in the Open division.
A station race more than a running one: 42% of the field beaten on the stations, against 21% on the runs. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:03 behind the median. A harder second half: 4:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2025 and Glasgow 2025 were 1:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
