The race, in three figures
The race, in words
1:23:50 at Manchester 2023 put Kevin O'Connor 219th of 649 men in the Open division, ahead of 66% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 2:23 on the median. The sandbag lunges cost the most time: 5:54 slower than the median. A harder second half: 14:42 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2023 and Manchester 2022 were 2:03 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
