The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Paul Simpson finished 978th of 1,206 men in the Open division at Manchester 2024, in 1:34:58.
If there was time left out there, it was on the wall balls, 3:43 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 4:26 worse 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.
