The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at London 2023, Ricky Banner crossed the line in 1:23:19: 777th of 1,865 men, faster than 58% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 72% of the field beaten on the stations, against 45% on the runs. The sandbag lunges were the standout, 1:33 quicker than the median and 110th of 1,865. The farmers carry cost the most time: 0:35 slower than the median.
Athletes who raced both London 2023 and Birmingham 2023 were 4:25 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
