The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Michael Donaldson finished 896th of 1,588 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2025, in 1:25:32.
The runs carried this race: faster than 54% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 29% on the stations. On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:25. The race faded late: the second half went 2:00 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2025 and Birmingham 2024 were 5:21 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
