The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Manchester 2023, Jess Andrews crossed the line in 1:24:35: 76th of 281 women, faster than 73% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 79% of the field beaten on the runs, 56% on the stations. Nowhere gained more than the sandbag lunges: 1:01 on the median. Paced to finish: the second half went 1:27 better against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Manchester 2023 and London 2022 were 1:37 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
