The race, in words
Luke Barlow finished 690th of 974 men in the Open division at Glasgow 2023, in 1:33:24.
Legs and stations told different stories: 59% of the field beaten on the runs, 16% on the stations. If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 3:23 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:50 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
This was a quick course. Against their other races this season, the people who raced Glasgow gained about 1:00.
