The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2024, Rory McQueen crossed the line in 1:10:50: 227th of 1,206 men, faster than 81% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 93% of the field beaten on the stations, against 62% on the runs. The wall balls were the standout, 2:12 quicker than the median and 35th of 1,206. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:06 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2024 and Birmingham 2023 were 6:46 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
