The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2023, Matthew Luxton crossed the line in 1:14:58: 184th of 1,182 men, faster than 84% of the field.
The wall balls were the standout, 2:03 quicker than the median and 117th of 1,182. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:26 better against the middle of the field than the first. Quick through the roxzone: 4:48, ahead of 85% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Manchester 2023 were 2:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
