The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Mark Weston finished 836th of 1,182 men in the Open division at Birmingham 2023, in 1:37:53.
Legs and stations told different stories: 47% of the field beaten on the runs, 22% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the burpee broad jumps, 2:54 behind the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 3:13 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2023 and Manchester 2023 were 2:56 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
