The race, in three figures
The race, in words
David Clack finished 451st of 1,182 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2023, in 1:23:55, faster than 62% of the field.
The runs carried this race: faster than 68% of the field over the eight kilometres, against 48% on the stations. Stronger after halfway: 3:47 better against the middle of the field than before it. Time in the roxzone, 4:40, was faster than 88% of the field.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Glasgow 2023 were 1:46 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
