The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Glasgow 2025, Tom Howe crossed the line in 1:15:13: 446th of 1,588 men, faster than 72% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 85% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 56% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 0:34 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 2:19 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2025 and Manchester 2023 were 7:48 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
