The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Brendan Grimes finished 378th of 581 men in the Open division at Rome 2026, in 1:29:47.
If there was time left out there, it was on the sandbag lunges, 0:57 behind the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:44 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Athletes who raced both Rome 2026 and Dublin 2025 were 1:16 faster here, so this time looks a little better than it was.
