The race, in words
Ed Williams & Laurey Williams finished 52nd of 211 mixed teams in the Doubles Open division at Manchester 2023, in 1:13:53, faster than 75% of the field.
A station race more than a running one: 88% of the field beaten on the stations, against 64% on the runs. The sled pull was the standout, 1:17 quicker than the median and 2nd of 211. A harder second half: 1:55 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Manchester ran slow: the 137 teams who also raced elsewhere this season were about 2:50 slower here than at their other races.
