The race, in three figures
The race, in words
In the Open division at Birmingham 2022, John Burns crossed the line in 1:20:54: 315th of 960 men, faster than 67% of the field.
Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:51 on the median. The wall balls cost the most time: 0:40 slower than the median. A harder second half: 1:48 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Birmingham 2022 and Manchester 2022 were 4:42 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
