The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Ricky Burns finished 339th of 1,784 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2024, in 1:15:09, faster than 81% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 90% of the field beaten on the runs, 63% on the stations. Stronger after halfway: 1:14 better against the middle of the field than before it. Quick through the roxzone: 4:23, ahead of 86% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Glasgow 2024 and Birmingham 2023 were 4:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
