The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:38:18 at Birmingham 2023 put Ian Brownrigg 849th of 1,182 men in the Open division.
Legs and stations told different stories: 43% of the field beaten on the runs, 21% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:11 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 7:28 worse 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.
