The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2023, Dan Groves crossed the line in 1:13:56: 146th of 1,182 men, faster than 88% of the field.
The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 2:02 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 1:46 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Manchester 2023 were 2:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
