The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Cian Gorey finished 292nd of 581 men in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 1:24:28.
On the sandbag lunges the field had the edge, by 1:46. A harder second half: 1:15 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Cardiff 2026 were 1:18 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
