The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2024, Tom Davies crossed the line in 1:14:49: 366th of 1,206 men, faster than 70% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 82% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 47% on the stations. On the wall balls the field had the edge, by 0:45. A harder second half: 1:01 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2024 and Birmingham 2022 were 4:37 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
